To review:
How DNA is helpful in ensuring greater justice in our society.
Introduction:
Each person's DNA has portions that are unique to him/her.

Explanation of Solution
DNA is present in every cell of the body and each person's DNA is unique. It can be found in what is left behind by a criminal at a crime scene – for example, blood, dead skin cells and saliva. The DNA can be extracted from these. The DNA from a suspect in the crime can be tested to see if it matches the DNA found at the crime scene. This can help identify criminals with greater accuracy, and prevent the wrongful imprisonment of innocent suspects.
DNA can be extracted from the blood, dead skin cells, saliva and other such remnants left behind by the criminal at the crime scene. This can be used to identify the criminal accurately and will prevent the wrongful conviction of innocent suspects.

- You inject morpholino oligonucleotides that inhibit the translation of follistatin, chordin, and noggin (FCN) at the 1 cell stage of a frog embryo. What is the effect on neurulation in the resulting embryo? Propose an experiment that would rescue an embryo injected with FCN morpholinos.arrow_forwardParticipants will be asked to create a meme regarding a topic relevant to the department of Geography, Geomatics, and Environmental Studies. Prompt: Using an online art style of your choice, please make a meme related to the study of Geography, Environment, or Geomatics.arrow_forwardPlekhg5 functions in bottle cell formation, and Shroom3 functions in neural plate closure, yet the phenotype of injecting mRNA of each into the animal pole of a fertilized egg is very similar. What is the phenotype, and why is the phenotype so similar? Is the phenotype going to be that there is a disruption of the formation of the neural tube for both of these because bottle cell formation is necessary for the neural plate to fold in forming the neural tube and Shroom3 is further needed to close the neural plate? So since both Plekhg5 and Shroom3 are used in forming the neural tube, injecting the mRNA will just lead to neural tube deformity?arrow_forward
