1.5 The polymerase used for PCR is called what and it is extracted from?

1.6 In single PCR cycle consisting of 30 seconds at 95C, 1 min at 55 C, and 1 min at 72C, what is happening in the step run at 55C

a. The DNA to be amplified is being denatured.

b. Primers are annealing to the DNA to be amplified.

c. DNA polymerase is extending new DNA from the primers.

d. Primers are being denatured.

1.7 What is the difference between a restriction endonuclease recognition site and RFLP?

a. Restriction endonuclease recognition sites produce DNA fragments that differ in size when the source of the DNA is from different chromosomes; RFLPs are any sequence of DNA recognized by a restriction endonuclease

b. Restriction endonuclease recognition sites produce DNA fragments that differ in size when the source of the DNA is from different chromosomes; RFLPs are any sequence of RNA amplified by reverse transcriptase and PCR.

c. Restriction endonuclease recognition sites produce DNA fragments that differ in size when the source of the DNA is from different chromosomes; RFLPs are any sequence of DNA recognized by a restriction endonuclease

d. Restriction endonuclease recognition sites are any sequence of DNA recognition endonuclease; RFLPs are DNA fragments produced by restriction endonuclease digestion that differ in size when DNA sequences differ between chromosomes or individuals.
