CYcles in a PCR result in

Cycles in a PCR result in Number of DNA copies increasing linearly Number of DNA copies increasing exponentially Number of DNA copies decreasing linearly Number of DNA copies decreasing exponentially

Solution

Number of DNA copies increase exponentially.

A single strand becomes 2 after one cycle. 4 after second cycle 8 after third cycle. This corresponds to exponential growth.
