<!-- In your own words, write an easy-to-comprehend list of the steps your group took to set up the PCR reaction in the PCR reaction tubes. End with placing the tubes in to the thermal cycler. Do not copy-paste the instructions from the Workbook. That will be considered plagiarism. --> | <!-- In your own words, write an easy-to-comprehend list of the steps your group took to set up the PCR reaction in the PCR reaction tubes.

1) The temperature is increased to 95°C for 30 seconds. The strands of DNA separate into single strands 2) The temperature is decreased to 57°C and primers bind to complimentary matches on the target DNA sequence 3) The temperature is increased to 72°C and taq polymerase binds to the primers and add nucleotides to extend the second strand
