For each one, determine which steps(s) of the PCR reaction (denaturation, annealing or extension) would be directly affect if that component were missing. Taq polymerase: Oligonucleotide primers: DNA template: Deoxynucleotides (A, T, G and C): Imagine that you correctly prepare your PCR reaction mixture, but there is something wrong with the thermal cycler. Describe what would happen if: The thermal cycler was stuck on 940C: The thermal cycler cycled between 600C and 720C, but never reached 940C The thermal cycler cycled between 940C and 720C, but never reached 600arrow_forward
