Anne Holt DNA Profiling Introduction: DNA Profiling was authorised in the mid- 1980s. DNA is short for deoxyribonucleic acid. DNA accommodates a genetic code for each organism. DNA profiling is not just used for identifying fingerprints and such‚ it is also used for identifying any type of evidence that has DNA in it. Auspiciously‚ each DNA is unique‚ not even siblings have indistinguishable DNA‚ unless they are identical twins. USES OF TECHNIQUE: DNA profiling is used most often to solve crime

‘Although set in different periods‚ Lord of the Flies and DNA present similar ideas about good and evil’. How far do you agree with this view? One of the central themes in both William Golding’s ‘Lord of the Flies’ and Dennis Kelly’s ‘DNA’ is good and evil; both texts collectively offering a plethora of theories and ideas about the morals of humans and how they influence their actions. In ‘Lord of the Flies’ a group of British schoolboys are stranded on an island. Far away from the influence of adults

Carbohydrates have two major functions in plants and animals: they serve as fuel and building material. Plants store most of their energy in the form of starch. Starch is a polysaccharide (consisting of several conjoined sugars). Synthesizing starch enables the plant to stockpile surplus glucose‚ and since glucose is a major cellular fuel‚ starch represents stored energy. The sugar can later be withdrawn by hydrolysis‚ which breaks the bonds between monomers. Animals‚ in turn‚ have enzymes that

Using agarose gel electrophoresis is to separate and visualize the DNA fragment‚ which is produced by restriction enzymes . Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is to measure the size of the fragments of DNA and separate

Using DNA in Science and Technology DNA is the blueprint for life‚ it is found in the nucleus of cells on the chromosomes. It is found in many cell organelles‚ such as plasmids in bacteria‚ chloroplasts in plants‚ and mitochondria in both plants and animals. DNA helps us to perform many actions in solving crimes‚ and also helps us to do scientific studies that were not possible until recently. DNA has a double helix structure‚ its sugar phosphate backbone‚ made up of deoxyribose and a phosphate

not sufficient DNA in the roots for standard DNA profiling. Fortunately‚ scientists found very small amount of DNA in the hair shaft and used Mitochondrial DNA testing (traces a person’s matrilineal or mother-line ancestry using the DNA in his or her mitochondria) matching the hair to John Taylor. There were dog hairs on Leanne Tiernan’s body as well‚ leading scientists in Texas to produce a partial dog DNA profile. This was the first time a British murder investigation had used dog DNA profiling. Although

A mutation is a change in DNA. To be more specific‚ it’s a change in the arrangement of bases in an individual gene or the structure of the chromosome which changes the arrangement. There are many types of mutations such as point mutation‚ frameshift‚ and chromosomal mutations. Each kind can either be very effective or not change much at all. It depends on the exact case and which kind it is. Some are more severe then others‚ for example point mutation is much less harmful then chromosomal mutation
