Answer:

The correct answer is - Gel electrophoresis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Gel electrophoresis is a lab technique used to separate distinct samples of mixed DNA, RNA, or proteins on the basis of their size. In gel electrophoresis, the molecules to be move from one another by an electrical field through a gel with small pores in it. DNA molecules are negatively charged so they move towards positive charge wells in the electric field and get separated.
