which of the following occurs during reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction?
A
Used to amplify DNA
B
RNA is converted to DNA
C
Proteins are converted to DNA
D
DNA is converted to RNA
Correct Answer: RNA is converted to DNA
Reverse Transcription PCR First, the enzyme reverse transcriptase uses the mRNA template to produce a complementary single - stranded DNA strand called cDNA in a process known as reverse transcription. Next, DNA polymerase is used to convert the single - stranded cDNA into double - stranded DNA.
