-Marks the sequence to be amplified during PCR

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Primers mark the sequence to be amplified during PCR by binding to complementary sequences flanking the target region.

Answer: B
 Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a laboratory technique used to amplify specific DNA sequences.

Answer: D
 Probes are short pieces of DNA or RNA that can bind specifically to complementary sequences and are used to detect the presence or absence of specific DNA sequences.

Answer: E
 Amplicon DNA sequence refers to the amplified product produced during PCR, which is a specific stretch of DNA that is marked by the primers used for amplification.

Note: Hybridization refers to the binding of complementary nucleic acid strands (DNA or RNA) and is not directly related to marking sequences for PCR.
