You are conducting genetic linkage studies of an autosomal recessive disease whose chromosomal location has not been firmly established. You are focused on two SSR markers that may be linked to each other and to the disease. Here are two families in which some individuals are affected:

 With the help of DNA fingerprinting which can be used to determine paternity. There are three babies (Baby A, Baby B and Baby C) in a maternity ward, and three sets of confused and worried parents. (Father and Mother #1 are a couple, as are Father and Mother #2, and Father and Mother #3.) 

You do each PCR reaction and load each one into a separate well of an agarose gel, and then run the gel.

 

 Why is it that having more repeats leads to a band that is higher in the gel?
