Recombinant DNA technology
PCR
Recombinant DNA technology
no, it is used to separate different sized pieces of DNA using a gel and an electric current. Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is the multiplication of DNA with the use of a PCR machine, enzymes and primers. The PCR machine allows the multiplication of DNA through temperature changes, activating each step of the reaction and copying DNA millions of times.
The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplifies specific regions of DNA, making them easier to detect and study. By creating millions of copies of a target DNA sequence, PCR increases the reliability of detecting mutations or variations in the DNA. This increased specificity and abundance of DNA copies make PCR a valuable tool in various genetic analyses.
Each cell in the human body typically contains two copies of DNA.
A cell does not make "extra copies" of DNA. Through a persons life, DNA can only be copied so many times. The only time DNA does "copy itself" would be if a new cell is needed. For example, your skin cells die all the time and are shedded off from your skins surface. Your skin then is going to get to the point where more cells are going to be made. The DNA replicating process is what starts the process of cell mitosis (making more cells). All the DNA in your body is used, so a cell does not make extra copies of DNA. If the DNA gets destroyed, that cell dies and is replaced by another.
you need many copies of DNA for DNA fingerprinting

Amplification is the production of many copies of a particular DNA segment. The copying repeats - so that copies of the copies are made. This results in many, many copies in only a few cycles. PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) is the most common method of amplifying DNA.

Replication! 1) DNA splits 2) DNA copies 3) left with 2 copies of DNA! :)
