Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What are the three main steps of PCR?
  • Step 1: Denaturation - The double-stranded DNA is heated to separate it into two single strands.
  • Step 2: Annealing - The temperature is lowered to allow short DNA primers to attach to the single strands.
  • Step 3: Extension - The temperature is raised again so that a special enzyme can add new DNA nucleotides to the primers, creating new strands of DNA.
