WCC PCR and DNA Are Replication Processes Discussion

 

I don’t understand this Biology question and need help to study.

Watch two short videos attached below. Both videos show the DNA replication process. The first video provides an overview of bacterial chromosome replication in-vivo. The second video describes the basics of in-vitro replication (i.e.., polymerase chain reaction, or PCR. amplification).

Compare both processes – enzymes, physical conditions, primer types (DNA or RNA), and the final product size and structure. Submit a short summary that highlights main similarities and differences between two replication processes. You should also discuss why in-vivo replication requires so many enzymes, while in-vitro relies only on the DNA-polymerase.
