Essays on DNA

DNA Evidence and its Application in Forensic Investigations DNA evidence is among many scientific tools that have been provided for the investigation of forensic evidence via the analysis of DNA which is a material that makes up one's genetic code. DNA can be retrieved from their hair, blood, skin cells as...

From its humble beginnings, forensic science has come a long way. For identification purposes, fingerprints have been used for a very long period. The breadth of forensic discoveries and advancements will be extended by this discipline. The tools used today to identify criminal offenders include DNA testing, impressions, and even...

The jurors made a critical error in their evaluation of the evidence. With all of the evidence shown to the jurors, it is easy to conclude that there was no tampering with or framing of the evidence in order to frame "the kid" of the crime against his blood father....

Genetic diseases are conditions that arise from an error in a person's DNA. These anomalies could result from a single mutation in a single genetic component or could be caused by the removal or addition of all the chromosomes. A deviation from the usual DNA sequence is a factor in...

Forensic Science Forensic science is the use of applied science in determining the perpetrators of a crime in accordance with the laws of a country. In the previous science used to determine the suspects were generally governed by the fingerprints observed at the scene of the crime whereby they were compared...

Nucleus and Its Functions Nucleus is the core of the cell and contains the natural material (DNA) as well as controlling all phone activities. In some organisms (prokaryotes) the cell does not have a nucleus. To operate its functions, it has structures known as organelles that useful resource in this. The...

Forensic Science Forensic science is a branch of science that involves the use of genetic materials such as DNA to investigate and solve a crime and other legal situations. Some of the biological materials needed to determine a DNA match include semen, saliva, teeth, cells, bones, faeces, tissues and blood. The...

Researchers Determine the Benefits of Partial Fin-Clipping for Seahorses Researchers determined that Partial fin-clipping was indeed a beneficial instrument for tissue sampling in seahorses. The results of the study confirmed no significant impact of clipping a phase of the fin seahorses, whether long time period or short term, on their growth...

The rampantness of neuropsychiatric condition increases everyday with people. It is increasing with pressures of work and stress, and this puts exposed people more at risk of neuropsychiatric diseases. The combination of several variables causes the disorder of central nervous system (CNS) level. Causes of abnormal mood changes are idiopathic...

The Origin of Eukaryotic Cells The endosymbiotic idea (symbiogenesis) is an evolutionary theory that explains how eukaryotic cells originated from prokaryotic cells. The theory posits that the organelles that distinguish eukaryotic cells such as mitochondria and plastids have been formerly free-living prokaryotes, and they evolved via symbiosis after being engulfed, a...
