How accurate is DNA and fingerprint technology, and when did it emerge? What level of human error still plays a role in this typ
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

DNA and fingerprint technology is said to be very accurate as it uses chemicals to separate strands of your own unique DNA to reveal the unique parts of your genome. which is your genetic make-up

This technology emerged in 1984 and invented by Professor Sir Alec Jeffreys who realized that you could detect variations in human DNA, in the form of these mini-satellites to produce a pattern unique to an individual

Human error still plays a role in terms of lab staff who make errors in conducting the DNA analysis, interpreting it or reporting the results of the analysis sometimes it occurs in entering the resulting DNA profile into a DNA database system which may result from a failure to comply a procedure, misjudgement, or some other mistake. There are protocols and precautions which can be introduced to minimise the opportunity for error during analysis or interpretation, however, the potential for human error cannot be fully eliminated.

Can anyone tell me the ratio of the genotype and phenotype ???
iogann1982 [59]
<h2>Hey There!</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Answer:</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Phenotype:</h2>

It is the physical appearance of the trait, whether the person has smooth chin or cleft chin.

<h2>Genotype:</h2>

A genotype refers to the genetic characteristics of an organism's trait, if it is heterozygous or hom.ozygous, recessive or dominant.

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Alleles:</h2>

Cleft chin C is dominant over smooth chin c

<h2>Genotypes of Parents:</h2><h3>FATHER:</h3>

Father has smooth chin thus, it is hom.ozygous recessive i.e. cc

<h3>MOTHER:</h3>

Mother has cleft chin, since cleft chin is dominant there are two possibilities of her genotype,

                           Heterozygous Dominant : Cc

                           Hom.zygous Dominant : CC

but if we cross the hom.zygous fominant mother to hom.ozygous recessive father we will get all the offsprings with the same genotype phenotype so it is not possibile, So the mother is HETEROZYGOUS DOMINANT Cc

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2><u>Question</u>:</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Genotypes of Parents:</h2>

FATHER: cc (Hom.ozygous Recessive)

MOTHER: Cc (Heterozygous Dominant)

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Punnet Square:</h2>

Picture attached!

Picture no 1: it is the cross between hom.ozygous recessive father and hom.ozygous dominant mother and all the offsprings are same both phenotypic and genotypic way so IT IS NOT POSSIBILE

Picture no 2: Its cross between hom.ozygous recessive father and heterozygous dominant mother and there are hybrid and pure recessive both type of offsprings present thus IT IS POSSIBLE!

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Genotype Ratio of the Offspring:</h2>

Hybrid : Pure Recessive

2 : 2 or 1 : 1

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Phenotype Ratio of the Offspring:</h2>

Cleft Chin : Smooth Chin

2 : 2 or 1 : 1

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Best Regards,</h2><h2>'Borz'</h2><h2 />
