The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to evaluate each of the provided statements about biotechnology techniques and identify which one is incorrect. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyze Option A**: - Statement: "In microinjection technique of gene transfer, only one cell can be injected at a time." - Evaluation: This statement is correct. The microinjection technique involves injecting DNA into a single cell using a fine needle. 2. **Analyze Option B**: - Statement: "PCR can detect a mutation able to the cause of particular disease." - Evaluation: This statement is also correct. Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is used to amplify DNA and can be used to detect mutations associated with diseases. 3. **Analyze Option C**: - Statement: "In the denaturation step of the PCR, the target DNA is heated to 42 to 46 degrees Celsius." - Evaluation: This statement is incorrect. During the denaturation step of PCR, the DNA is heated to approximately 90 degrees Celsius to separate the strands, not 42 to 46 degrees Celsius. 4. **Analyze Option D**: - Statement: "The use of restriction enzyme is preceded by the use of chitinase, pectinase, and lysozyme." - Evaluation: This statement is correct. These enzymes are used to break down the cell wall components before restriction enzymes can act on the DNA. ### Conclusion: The incorrect statement is **Option C**: "In the denaturation step of the PCR, the target DNA is heated to 42 to 46 degrees Celsius." ---
