Expert Solution & Answer

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.

Conclusion

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.

We will be starting a group project next week where you and your group will research and ultimately present on a current research article related to the biology of a pathogen that infects humans. The article could be about the pathogen itself, the disease process related to the pathogen, the immune response to the pathogen, vaccines or treatments that affect the pathogen, or other biology-related study about the pathogen. I recommend that you choose a pathogen that is currently interesting to researchers, so that you will be able to find plenty of articles about it. Avoid choosing a historical disease that no longer circulates. List 3 possible pathogens or diseases that you might want to do for your group project.
