Answer
Correct option: C.
Polymerase chain reaction
c Gene amplification using primers can be done by polymerase chain reaction $(PCR)$. In this reaction, multiple copies of the gene of interest is synthesized in vitro using two sets of primers and the enzyme $DNA$ polymerase. Primers are small chemically synthesized oligonucleotides that are complementary to the regions of $DNA$.
