The components of the PCR Reaction include the template DNA, primers, Taq Polymerase, Magnesium Chloride(MgCl2), and Deoxyribonucleotides (dNTP's). Each component or reagent is added to the PCR tube before running them through the PCR device and software called "Open PCR".The template DNA is the source of genetic information in which an enzyme copies from.

Screen-captures from the PCR video/ tutorial might be useful. Be sure to credit the sources if you borrow images.)
