a.

Summary Introduction

To determine: Whether, any of the suspects can be excluded as the one who committed the crime based on the results of the testing, or not.

Introduction: The genetic material of an individual is packed in the form of DNA. The evidence collected by the police is a small bloodstain from which the DNA is extracted and the fragments are separated with the help of electrophoresis. The separated fragments are transferred to a membrane where they are probed with radioactive DNA.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The suspect which can be excluded as the one who committed the crime with a plausible reason.

Introduction: The genetic material of an individual is packed in the form of DNA. The evidence collected by the police is a small bloodstain from which the DNA is extracted and the fragments are separated with the help of electrophoresis. The separated fragments are transferred to a membrane where they are probed with radioactive DNA.

c.

Summary Introduction

To determine: Whether the pattern from the evidence is consistent with the band pattern of one of the suspects, or not and also determine the suspect with which it is consistent.

After you feel comfortable with your counting method and identifying cells in the various stages of mitosis, use the four images below of whitefish blastula to count the cells in each stage until you reach 100 total cells, recording your data below in Data Table 1. (You may not need to use all four images. Stop counting when you reach 100 total cells.) After totaling the cells in each stage, calculate the percent of cells in each stage. (Divide total of stage by overall total of 100 and then multiply by 100 to obtain percentage.)   Data Table 1Stage    Totals    PercentInterphase        Mitosis:        Prophase        Metaphase        Anaphase        Telophase        Cytokinesis        Totals    100    100% To find the length of time whitefish blastula cells spend in each stage, multiply the percent (recorded as a decimal, in other words take the percent number and divide by 100) by 24 hours. (Example: If percent is 20%, then Time in Hours = .2 * 24 = 4.8) Record your data in Data…
