PCR and Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism are the methods for
A Genetic Fingerprinting
B Study of enzymes
C Genetic transformation
D DNA sequencing

Detailed Solution

DNA (genetic) fingerprinting identifies differences in repetitive DNA between individuals.
RFLP detects differences in the lengths of restriction fragments, and PCR amplifies very small DNA samples for this analysis.
