KCET · BIOLOGY · STD 12 - 9. Biotechnology: Principles and Processes
PCR is used for
- A DNA amplification
- B DNA isolation
- C DNA ligation
- D DNA digestion
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) DNA amplification
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
(A) DNA amplification,
PCR is a very sensitive technique that allows rapid amplification of a specific segment of DNA. PCR makes billions of copies of a specific DNA fragment or gene, which allows detection and identification of gene sequences using visual techniques based on size and charge.
