Yes, you can see your own DNA!
The reference material explains that you can extract DNA and make it visible without a microscope. The video shows that the DNA appears as a "sticky weird string" that can be pulled out of a solution using a toothpick (as seen in the YouTube video titled "How to see your own DNA without a microscope"). This process can also be done with other sources like bananas or strawberries.
Here's a simple breakdown:
- DNA is present in your cells: Every cell in your body contains DNA.
- Extraction is possible: You can extract DNA from your cells using simple methods.
- Visible to the naked eye: When extracted in sufficient quantity, DNA becomes visible as a stringy substance.
