 PCR stands for polymerase chain reaction, which is a technique used to amplify small amounts of DNA. PCR makes multiple copies of a specific DNA segment through the use of the enzyme DNA polymerase. DNA polymerase uses primers and free nucleotides to assemble complementary strands to the specified DNA template.

Explanation:

in pcr DNA fragment is amplified which increases the concentration of the fragment.

since it touches the concentration of 1 billion in 30 cycles so you can imagine how fast it works .....

in a simple sense it is increasing the concentration of the DNA

hope it helps you
