During the Hybridization/annealing Phase of a PCR Reaction,the Primers Bind

Multiple Choice

During the hybridization/annealing phase of a PCR reaction,the primers bind to the target DNA sequence at a specific temperature.What effect would an increase in the GC content of the primer have on the optimal temperature for annealing the primer to a target DNA sequence?

A) the annealing temperature would increase
B) the annealing temperature would decrease
C) the annealing temperature would remain the same
