PCR and Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) are the methods for:

  1. A
    Genetic Fingerprinting
  2. B
    Study of enzymes
  3. C
    Genetic transformation
  4. D
    DNA sequencing

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

DNA Fingerprinting involves identifying differences in specific regions of DNA sequence called repetitive DNA. Methods used to amplify and analyze these polymorphic regions include PCR (to amplify) and RFLP (to detect variations in restriction sites).
