a) Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is a laboratory technique used to make multiple copies of a specific segment of DNA. It was developed by Kary Mullis in 1983 and revolutionized genetic research. Steps in PCR: Denaturation: DNA is heated to separate the strands. Annealing: Short primers bind to specific sequences. Extension: […]

Cloning Cloning refers to the process of creating genetically identical copies of biological entities. There are two main types: reproductive cloning, which aims to produce a living organism (like Dolly the sheep), and therapeutic cloning, which focuses on generating tissues or organs for medical purposes. While cloning holds potential for advancing medical treatments, especially for
