List the five reagents that are critical for performing a PCR reaction:
_feedback: The five reagents are: Mg2+-based buffer, dNTPs, DNA primers, DNA template, and DNA polymerase.
4.
True or False: DNA polymerase requires Mg2+ as a cofactor for its reaction mechanism.
_feedback_correct: Correct.
_feedback_incorrect: Incorrect.
5.
True or False: Taq polymerase is a heat-stable DNA polymerase that can survive sequential thermocycle rounds.
_feedback_correct: Correct.
_feedback_incorrect: Incorrect.
6.
True or False: DNA primers that are used for PCR are usually long oligonucleotides that have melting temperatures of 95°C or greater.
_feedback_correct: Correct.
