A. What is the purpose of a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)? List the four main components of a PCR. (2 points)
The purpose of a PCR is to make large amounts of DNA segments from just a specific DNA sequence. This method is used to scientifically prove if a suspect of committing a crime is truly the person who committed the crime. The four main components of a PCR are: DNA from a sample, nucleotides A, T, G, C, DNA polymerase, and primers.
B. What is gene expression? List the two steps of gene expression and where they occur in the cell. (2 points)
Genes are genetic codes or also known as sections of DNA. In order for this genes to be useful to a living organism, they need to be turned into useful products. The process of making these useful
