    Yes, the DNA was the same length.

    Explanation:

    Gel electrophoresis is a molecular method that separates charged molecules according to their charge and size across an electric field. DNA is negatively charged hence it moves towards the positive pole.

    Due to having the same charge, DNA fragments are separated according to their size or length.

    Therefore, Fragments of the same length will move or migrate at the same distance and those having different lengths will move at different distance.
