Palaeontologists unearthed a human skull during excavation. $A$ small fragment of the scalp tissue was still attached to it. Only a little $DNA$ could be extracted from it. If the genes of the ancient man need to be analysed,the best way of getting a sufficient amount of $DNA$ from this extract is:

  • A
    By hybridizing the $DNA$ with a $DNA$ probe
  • B
    By subjecting the $DNA$ to polymerase chain reaction
  • C
    By subjecting the $DNA$ to gel electrophoresis
  • D
    By treating the $DNA$ with restriction endonucleases
