Biochemistry WGU - C624: Module 1: The Case of the Boy Who Wanted to Fly / 4. Check Your Understanding: PCR. Questions and answers, Rated A+ PCR is a powerful tool that can do all of the following EXCEPT ________. - -b. copy large segments of DNA, greater than 6kb Which of the following is NOT a required "ingredient" in a PCR reaction? - -b. RNA primers CorrectCorrect! RNA primers are used in DNA replication inside the cell, but the quick degradation of RNA makes it less useful for PCR reactions. Instead, PCR reactions contain primers made of DNA to anneal to the region of DNA that will be amplified and serve as a starting point for DNA polymerase Which of the following changes can NOT be detected using PCR? - -d. Epigenetic changes CorrectCorrect! Epigenetic changes are not detectable via PCR because they don't affect the DNA sequence. Which one of the following could result in better outcomes for type 2 diabetics? - -a. An increased number of GluT4 transporters in the cell membrane. CorrectCorrect! In Type 2 diabetics, the number of glucose transporters in the target cells is decreased leading to inefficient uptake of glucose by the cells. Increasing the amount of transporters will in
