include or exclude evidence being tested. Each piece of evidence should be packaged and stored ready for transport and each piece of evidence should be separately packaged. These precautions are very important to have a successful crime scene investigation (A Guide for Investigating Bomb and Explosion Scenes: Evaluating the Scene‚ 2001). To decrease the risk of contamination the scene must be investigated as soon as possible. Fire accelerants and explosive powders can evaporate within hours or days

The crime scene examination and subsequent search should be done in a careful and methodical manner. After talking to the officer(s) who were the first ones on the scene and learning from them of any changes that might have been made to the scene since their arrival‚ such as turning lights on or off or opening doors or windows‚ start the examination by working your way into the body using great care to avoid disturbing or destroying any evidence as you do. Carefully observe the floor or ground surrounding

Critically evaluate the claim that offender profiling is “more of an art than a science”. Criminal profiling attempts to understand the characteristics and personality of an offender and has now gained recognition as a useful investigative tool. To be able to use profiling effectively you must be able to understand the categories of violent and sexual crimes and how they are described within convictions within court. Holmes 1989 stated that profiling is more helpful when there is a sadistic element

In crime scene investigations there is a lot of evidence that is valuable. That is including hair that is found at a crime scene. However‚ hair may not be seen as valuable evidence‚ but it is. Hair can tell you things that other evidence cannot. It can give you information about the unknown perpetrator and narrow your list of suspects. Hair is the most common type of trace evidence. Hair is easily transferred and resilient. Therefore‚ making it the most probable to be found at a crime scene

cellular respiration is taking place at the same time‚ consuming oxygen‚ the rate of which the discs rise is an indirect measurement of the net rate of photosynthesis. Aim: To find out if light affects the rate of photosynthesis through an investigation with leaf discs of a spinach leaf. Hypothesis: If the light source is removed or becomes limited‚ then it will take much longer for the leaf disc to rise as cellular respiration will no longer be taking place as part of the equation for photosynthesis

DNA extraction lab 1. A number of steps are required to isolate DNA from cellular content. Describe what happens at each step‚ and why it acts to separate the parts of the cell. The steps include a) breaking cell open to release the DNA; b) separating the DNA from cellar materials and proteins; c) using alcohol to precipitate the DNA; d) cleaning the DNA; e) confirming the presence of the DNA. a) Breaking cell open to release the DNA: the cells are separated from each other by physical means such
