At what temperature do annealing of DNA and primer takes place?
Explanation
ExplanationAfter the denaturation of the two strands the temperature is decreased to 50 – 60˚C. At this temperature the primers anneal to their complementary segments. Thus as 54˚ lies within this range, 54˚ is the correct option.
