DNA polymerases used in PCR

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Taq and Vent polymerases are examples of DNA polymerases commonly used in PCR, as they have the ability to withstand the high temperatures needed for the denaturation step in PCR. Other DNA polymerases, such as those used in DNA replication, may not be suitable for PCR because they denature at the high temperatures needed in the denaturation step. Options A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately describe DNA polymerases used in PCR. Option E is incorrect as not all of the choices are correct.
