Cytochrome C Study

A scientist wants to study the cytochrome c gene of a fruit fly. The DNA for the gene is extracted and subjected to several treatments.

Use the passage to answer the next four questions.

Part B:

If the scientist wanted to have a large number of copies of the gene for use in further study, which technique would the scientist use?

PCR

epigenetics

hybridization

gel electrophoresis

The technique that the scientist would use to have a large number of copies of the gene for further study is PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction).
