2, 1, 4, 3

Explanation:

2

Denaturation by Heat to separate double-stranded DNA into two single strands

1

Annealing Primer to Target Sequence

The primers that anneal (bind) to the complementary sequence marks the DNA target sequence

4

Extension

New double stranded DNA molecules that is identical to the original double stranded target DNA region is formed

3

End of the First PGR Cycle

Fresh DNA polymerase is added
