Answer: See Below

Step-by-step explanation:

1. A probe will bind to a particular DNA sequence if it is present in a sample indicating its presence or absence.

2. Review southern blotting.

3. Southern blotting uses hybridization of a probe to a target sequence to identify if the target DNA is present.
