Solution
The correct option is A Replication
The principle of PCR is the semiconservative nature of DNA replication which means that exact 2 copies of same strands are produced after replication. Each replication produces exactly same copies of the DNA. The no. of strands formed can be calculated by 2n (where n is no. of cycles). Semi word is used because the parental dsDNA is separated and each of these strand act as the template strand. It is very widely used in molecular biology and biotechnology to make copies of sample DNA.
