DNA is deoxyribonucleic acid, which is insoluble in ethanol. In the process of centrifugation the addition of ethanol can aid to separate protein from its DNA.
<h3>What is centrifugation?</h3>
Centrifugation is a process of separating different molecules in a given sample that have different densities by rotating them in solution around an axis at high speed.
It is the frequently applied techniques in the molecular biology laboratory.
The addition of alcohol or ethanol to the sample followed by centrifugation can separate the proteins from its DNA.
Thus, the substance used to separate the proteins from the DNA is alcohol or ethanol.

Answer:
i
Explanation:
long chains of repeating subunits, called nucleotides
A nucleotide is the basic building block of nucleic acids
The shortened form of the unit that Kevin's bag was weighed in would be Lbs.
Species evolve independently possibly due to geographical isolations or behavioural isolations.
Geographical isolation includes the isolation of 2 groups of the same species. Since these 2 groups live in different locations, (e.g. a volcanic eruption resulting in a barrier between one side of an ocean and another side of the ocean), they will have different selection pressures in their different environments as well (e.g. one side of the ocean may have more sunlight and thus more underwater plantations than the other side of the ocean). Natural selection will eliminate those with disadvantageous characteristics (e.g. Fishes that only eat plants and nothing else on the side of the ocean with little plantations) with unfavourable alleles, and select for those with advantageous characteristics (e.g. Fishes are able to eat plants and other organic substances as well on the side of the ocean with little plantations) with favourable alleles.
Since the 2 groups have different selection pressures, natural selection will occur in different ways, selecting for and against different types of fishes with different types of alleles. Also, because of the barrier, they are not able to mate with each other, and there are no mixing of genes from one side of the ocean and the other side. They are genetically isolated. As genetic drift occurs over time, their gene pools become different from each other. Thus, they evolve independently.
Hope this helps! :)
