Dna fingerprinting is based in part on recombinant dna technology and in part on those techniques originally used in medical gen

etics to detect slight variations in the genomes of different individuals. these techniques are used in forensic pathology to compare specimens from the suspect with those of the forensic specimen. what is being compared when dna fingerprinting is used in forensic pathology?

DNA markers between a suspect and a crime scene specimen are compared, including <span>DNA minisatellites, short tandem repeats (STRs) and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The total markers that can be compared can number in the thousands, and therefore the chances of DNA fingerprinting identifying the incorrect suspect are negligible. </span>

Answer:

1. Both neutron stars and black holes are the corpses of stars that died in explosions known as supernovas. Black holes form when the most massive stars die and neutron stars form when stars not as large die. They both have a very strong gravitational pull, but a black hole's pull is stronger than a neutron star. Neutron stars <u>will turn into</u> black holes if the force of gravity breaks the resistance of electrons.

2. White dwarfs are degenerate, which means they can compress matter. The material in a white dwarf no longer undergoes fusion reactions, so it is supported only by electron degeneracy pressure. This causes it to be extremely dense, saving space and energy.

3. A light year is the distance light travels in a year while an astronomical unit is the average distance between the earth and the sun.

4. A convection zone transfers energy by radiation and conduction.

-Simple squamous epithelium is the single layer of thin, flat cells that line body surfaces which are not exposed substantially abrasive forces. The primary function of the columnar cell is that secretion and absorption simple squamous epithelium a single layer flat scale shaped cells.

-Simple squamous epithelium lines the air sacs, or alveoli, of the lungs. The alveoli are sites where air is exchanged in the lungs. Simple squamous epithelial cells in the alveoli allow oxygen from the air to enter the blood in the capillaries of the lung.
