Forensic Fingerprint Analysis Professor Patrick Morley Part 1 Based upon your expertise in regards to fingerprint and friction-skin development‚ explain why the following conclusion regarding human cloning is false. Premise: The proven fact that identical twins do not have the same fingerprints has been accepted. However‚ human clones present a different set of friction skin development issues. Conclusion: The clone‚ being directly derived from the host‚ would indeed have the same fingerprints. That

The upper layer of the atmosphere surrounded by ozone (15 to 30 Kms) is known as ozonosphere. Ozone layer is a protective stratospheric layer‚ also known as ozone umbrella. Ozone concentration differs by about 10 ppm in stratosphere compared to 0.05 ppm in troposphere. It acts as a protective shield for the man‚ animals and plants by filtering out the lethal ultraviolet rays from reaching the earth’s surface. If the ozone layer is not there‚ the harmful ultraviolet rays will reach to the

Every time 1% of the ozone layer is depleted‚ 2% more UV-B is able to reach the surface of the planet. So in short‚ without the ozone layer everything on earth will burn. The ozone layer is just as important to us as oxygen‚ without it the harmful UV radiation would give us server burns and destroy our delicate ecosystems. Even though there is hard evidence that proves that ozone depletion is harmful for organisms on earth‚ there are a few groups who think that the ozone layer is a “myth” aka doesn’t
