Solution
The first step of PCR is denaturation. In this step, high temperature is required for denaturation of the DNA strands i.e. separating the double-stranded DNA into single strands. Since the two strands are held together by hydrogen bonding, a high temperature is required to break down these bonds and separate the two strands.
