The correct option is A Gel electrophoresis
  • Agarose is prepared from agar. Agar is extracted from marine red algae like Gelidium and Gracilaria.
  • Agarose is used in agarose gel electrophoresis.
  • Two types of electrophoresis are commonly carried out in molecular biology experiments.
  • One is PAGE (i.e., Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) and the other is agarose gel electrophoresis.

So, the correct answer is 'Gel electrophoresis'.
