Problem: A _____ is a DNA molecule used in hybridization reactions to detect the presence of a particular gene in separated DNA fragments.A. plasmidB. vectorC. probeD. blot
FREE Expert Solution
Restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP) is a known method in genetic analysis. It aims to identify individuals through detection of differences in DNA sequence by the presence of particular DNA fragments. This technique is used in DNA fingerprinting as different samples would be more likely to produce different fragments.
