In this lab‚ the purpose was to find how mass‚ angle‚ and length affected the average period that it took for a pendulum to swing eight times. For each experiment‚ the pendulum had two constants either being the mass‚ angle‚ or length and had one variable being changed‚ also being either the mass‚ angle‚ or length. In each experiment‚ the pendulum took ten full swings and at the end of the tenth swing‚ the time was taken. Then‚ the time of the ten swings was divided by ten and an average period

swab can be sufficient for analysis. The tiny fraction of DNA that is unique to individuals is what is used in forensic testing. In the early stages of DNA forensics‚ restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP) were used by digesting DNA with restriction enzymes and then analyzing the resulting fragment lengths which were unique to individuals (Davidson). One of the main techniques used nowadays is the combination of PCR and short tandem repeats. PCR‚ or polymerase chain reaction‚ is a method used

utilized in DNA fingerprinting: Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) RFLP is a technique for analyzing the variable lengths of DNA fragments that result from digesting a DNA sample with a special kind of enzyme. This enzyme‚ a restriction endonuclease‚ cuts DNA at a specific sequence pattern know as a restriction endonuclease recognition site. The presence or absence of certain recognition sites in a DNA sample generates variable lengths of DNA fragments‚ which are separated using gel electrophoresis

DNA Profiling and Ethics Reflection Journal Vanshika Khemka 14th October 2012 "33 autorad off" On 10th September 1984‚ geneticist Alec Jeffrey’s wrote these three words in his red desk diary. This marked the completion of an experiment‚ which studied how inherited illnesses pass through families. The experiment failed entirely. (McKie‚ 2009) However‚ this led to the most profound discovery: the world’s first DNA fingerprint. Now‚ the smallest swab of blood or sweat can determine

and the number and size of DNA pieces that will be left behind. These pieces can then be separated and compared using the process of gel electrophoresis. As these fragments move‚ their varying lengths propel them through the gel at different speeds. Scientists can use these RFLPs‚ Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphisms‚ a set of DNA puzzle pieces unique to only you‚ to create a pattern called a DNA fingerprint. Similar to the unique

Criminal evidence is any exhibit or testimony regarding a crime. It can take many forms‚ and is typically used to establish that a crime has been committed and identify blame or fault in a criminal case. What constitutes acceptable criminal evidence varies somewhat between legal systems‚ although ideally‚ evidence provides reasonably reliable information that gives a more complete picture of a crime The outcome of many criminal law cases will depend upon the strength and admissibility of evidence

one must conduct these tests carefully. A technique called Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is used to make millions of copies of the DNA without destroying it. Then‚ a restriction enzyme cuts the DNA into different fragments called reaction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) at specific binding sites. Gel electrophoresis is used to move the RLPF fragments from the negative to positive pole using an electrical charge. The movement of the RFLP fragments distance depends on their size and shape; therefore

The Importance of DNA Evidence What is DNA? Is it these winding strands that look like ladders or is it what gives a person blonde hair and blue eyes? Actually‚ DNA is both of these things. DNA is a person’s genetic makeup–their hereditary blueprint passed on by their parents. It is a part of almost every cell in the human body. In each cell‚ a person’s DNA is the same; it stays the same throughout their lifetime. DNA is found in skin tissue‚ sweat‚ bone‚ the root and shaft of hair‚ earwax‚ mucus
