Answer: True

DNA is a biological evidence. It is a heredity material which is present in all organisms on earth. The DNA in humans can be taken as sample from nails, bones, blood, skin, hair and other sources.

The DNA samples can be taken so as to establish the identity of the culprit, victim or any one which is associated with crime.

The DNA evidence has applicability as a potent evidence in the court of law. Thus utmost care should be taken to preserve it's integrity until it is analysed and presented in the court of law.

Thus the DNA evidence should be collected and preserved in airtight containers so as to prevent the entry of airborne pathogens like bacteria, virus these can contaminate the sample evidence and can make the evidence not of any use.
