Question
Chapter 27.3, Problem 1LO
Summary Introduction
To determine: The different types of methods of DNA exchange in the prokaryotes.
Introduction: Horizontal gene transfer can be defined as the exchange of genetic contents between the unicellular and multi-cellular organisms that do not include the transmission of DNA from parent to offspring. This process is responsible for evolution by mixing the genetic material of two species.

If PCR was performed on the fragment of DNA shown below using "5'-TAGG-3" and "3'-TCTA-5'" as the primers, how many base pairs long would the PCR product be? To help with this, remember the antiparallel structure of DNA and that primers are complementary and antiparallel to the target sequence that they bind to. Hint: Check out the 5' and 3' labels....they are important!
