Here’s the activity: http://www.phschool.com/science/biology_place/biocoach/red/intro.html.
Take the quiz at the end and take a screenshot of your answers and email me!
If you want a more in-depth look at Gel Electrophoresis, do this activity: http://learn.genetics.utah.edu/content/labs/gel/
There are also handouts at the front that will help in constructing calibration curves.
Let me know if you have questions!
