the previously extracted DNA is prepared for PCR amplification 
the small white balls in the tubes create the necessary environment for the amplification. 
first add pure water 
primers targeting specific sections of the gene, where it is know to show unique species information QT movie of the process: primers (18MB) 
the DNA goes in last to prevent any contamination of primers 
amplification machines, heat and cool the mixture the get the primers to adhere to the dna strand in the correct area of the gene. next step DNA sequencing |
