Another investigation strategy we will use is, electrophoresis to analyze the pattern of bands that are left behind.

After we took samples of DNA out of the bones we used gel electrophoresis to separate the DNA fragments according to their size. Then we stain the DNA with a binding dye so we can see the fragments as bands, that represent groups of same sized DNA fragments. We use the polymorphisms to find out who this person was; because every one has their own unique position and amount of these. We will use electrophoresis to separate and measure the length of these fragments and ultimately find the genotypes of that individual and find out who this person
