PCR and Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism are the methods for
- AGenetic transformation
- BGenetic Fingerprinting
- CStudy of enzymes
- DDNA sequencing
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is used to amplify a small DNA fragment to obtain its large quantity. PCR is very helpful in DNA fingerprinting in such cases where the culprit has to be identified from a very small blood, semen or other cell sample from a crime scene.
