Answer:

Gel electrophoresis

Step-by-step explanation:

PCR, that is, polymerase chain reactions amplifies the small amount of sample DNA into the multiple copies. These DNA fragments are then subjected to gel electrophoresis, a technique that uses the electric field and separates the DNA fragments based on their size. These separated DNA fragments are then visualized using autoradiography.
