Answer:

150 - 300 bp

Step-by-step explanation:

Micrococcal nuclease, indistinctly from the time of treatment and in average organisms, will realize the cuts on DNA o RNA zones rich in AT or AU. It is not a specific endonuclease.

Even so, the mean size of the expected fragments will have between 150 bp and 300 bp.

It is very important to run your digestion along with a proper label.
