DNA Mutations can be positive in the fact that they can be beneficial to the host of the mutation. For example, if our DNA mutated so that we could have fins and gills, we could be better equipped for the ocean, which could be useful if the Earth's landmass was devastated or could no longer support all of us. Most of the time, DNA Mutations are useful adaptations to maintain homeostasis in the human body.

DNA is a molecule that carries genetic information in living organisms, and it plays a crucial role in determining an individual's characteristics and traits. In a biological or forensic context, the presence of DNA can be used to identify individuals or ascertain relationships between them. So, in that sense, DNA can be seen as "positive" when it is used for these purposes.
The DNA test result is positive.
In gel electrophoresis, DNA moves through the gel matrix from the negative electrode to the positive electrode.
In gel electrophoresis, DNA fragments move towards the anode (positive electrode) because DNA is negatively charged. Smaller fragments move faster through the gel matrix, so they appear closer to the anode while larger fragments move slower and appear closer to the cathode. This results in separation of DNA fragments based on size.
During gel electrophoresis, DNA moves through the gel because it is negatively charged and is attracted to the positive electrode. The DNA molecules are pulled through the gel by an electric field, separating them based on size.
During gel electrophoresis, DNA moves through a gel due to an electric current applied to the gel. The negatively charged DNA molecules are attracted to the positive electrode and move towards it, with smaller DNA fragments moving faster and farther than larger ones. This separation allows for the analysis of DNA fragments based on their size.
