Describe the polymerase chain reaction

Describe the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and its application to an area of human, plant or animal science.provide a detailed overview of the theory, methodology and components of PCR. This will include details relating to the DNA polymerase that is used (heat stable, hot start polymerases, high-fidelity proof-reading DNA polymerases), the PCR reaction (understanding the steps that make up each cycle) and concepts such as annealing, denaturation, melting point, forward and reverse (or sense and antisense) primers, amplicons and amplificationo.

How PCR can be applied. You can choose an example from the fields of human (e.g., medical science or forensics), plant (e.g., transgenic plants) or animal (e.g., ecology and conservation) science and describe how PCR is applied in that context. You may describe the use of PCR in a research setting or look for examples where PCR is being used in an applied setting; for example, PCR is a critical part of many genetic tests, it is also part of DNA sequencing that is used to determine the DNA sequences of living and extinct organisms.

Thank you.
