#Applied Microbiology

Read the following statements regarding the steps of a standard PCR cycle and choose the correct option.

Statement I: The denaturation step involves the breaking of phosphodiester bonds to separate the double-stranded DNA into single strands.

Statement II: The annealing temperature is usually set 3 -5 0   C lower than the melting temperature (Tm) of the primers to ensure specific binding.
