DNA fingerprinting is a way of identifying a specific individual‚ rather than simply identifying a species or some particular trait. It is also known as genetic fingerprinting or DNA profiling. As a technology‚ it has been around since at least 1985‚ when it was announced by its inventor‚ Sir Alec Jeffreys. DNA fingerprinting is currently used both for identifying paternity or maternity and for identifying criminals or victims. There is discussion of using DNA fingerprinting as a sort of personal

Title Application of DNA Barcodes to Identify Various Plant Species Abstract In this experiment we applied barcodes to plants in order to identify what species they are classified under. We also compared the DNA sequences of different plant species using the ribulose-biphosphate carboxylase gene (rbcL). We took samples from a plant called Chard and performed PCR‚ DNA amplification and quantification and sequenced the DNA. During the experiment‚ we hypothesized that this year’s “nonspinach”

Associate Program Material DNA Worksheet Answer the following in at least 100 words: Describe the structure of DNA.DNA is thread formed by two strands‚ related together to form a double helix. The double helix looks like a twisted ladder. The sides of this ladder are long unites called nucleotides and are made of three parts; a nitrogenous base‚ a sugar‚ and a phosphate group. The sides of the ladder or the nucleotides from the two separate strands of the DNA are attached by an appendage

Review 2: Text DNA is a very special and important molecule that is in our life‚ DNA is found in the nucleus. DNA stores the data needed to make poly peptides‚then data in a nucleic acid is transferred to messenger RNA‚ which escapes the nucleus into a protein. According to the DNA and protein article DNA is used in many things but DNA is used to make pol-peptides. They are another word for proteins. When a cell makes a protein the direction are resembled from the part of an DNA. DNA strand and transcript

DNA Research Paper DNA Structure: DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is the code for life; it makes up the genetic material of living organisms. DNA is a long molecule made up of many subunits‚ or monomers‚ called nucleotides. Nucleotides are made up of three parts: a sugar‚ a phosphate group‚ and a nitrogenous base. Nucleotides contain a sugar-phosphate backbone and bases. There are four bases in DNA: adenine‚ cytosine‚ guanine‚ and thymine. A (adenine) always pairs with T (thymine)‚ and C (cytosine)
