This is what PCR stands for
What is the acronym for the Polymerase Chain Reaction?
Taq Polymerase is a thermostable version of this enzyme
What is the thermostable version of DNA Polymerase I?
DNA research and genetics is made by using this
What is PCR
This is a tool used for DNA Extraction

This is where PCR occurs
What happens in a test tube?
It is found in this species of bacteria
What is Thermus Aquaticus?
This is a "fundamental operation" within cells
What is DNA Replication?
This is the range of cycles a thermocycler runs through
What is 30-40 cycles?
This is 2x molecules of DNA
What is the total PCR yield?
This is when PCR was discovered
What was discovered in 1983?
Thermus Aquaticus is an example of this type of bacteria
What is thermophilic bacteria?
This is not used in PCR
What is DNA Polymerase III?
This term is used for describing when primers will bond to the complimentary sequences
What is Annealing?
These are the names of the hosts
BUT. By order of last names a-z

These are the three steps for PCR
What are denaturation, annealing, and DNA Synthesis?
The type of organism in which taq polymerase is found
What are eukaryotes?
Molecules needed in both PCR and DNA replication to prepare the DNA for synthesis
What are DNA Primers?
The number of steps needed to ensure a correct temperature on a thermocycler
What process has 7 steps?
This is the title of this jeopardy
What is What is PCR?
This is what PCR needs in order to occur
