During the lab, what information from the theory section provided additional background information about the subject? Identify the concepts and explain how they are related to the lab topic.
a) The theory section provides information about the concept of genetic mutations and their role in genetic disorders, which relates to the lab topic of identifying and analyzing genetic mutations in a given sample.

b) The theory section explains the process of PCR (polymerase chain reaction) and its importance in amplifying specific DNA sequences, which is directly relevant to the lab's technique of amplifying DNA for analysis.

c) The theory section covers the principles of gel electrophoresis and its application in separating DNA fragments based on size, which corresponds to the lab's use of gel electrophoresis to analyze DNA samples.

d) The theory section discusses the concept of genetic variation and its significance in understanding genetic diversity, which is relevant to the lab's objective of identifying and comparing genetic variations among different samples.
