According to the image below, which season is about to begin in the northern hemisphere?
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

winter

Explanation:

On this image, we can see the Earth being tilted away by 23.5 degrees from the Sun. This tilting puts the Northern Hemisphere in a situation where it is the one that is tilted away from the Sun, thus it will receive less sunlight, as well as less direct sunlight. That will cause lower temperatures on the Northern Hemisphere, thus the winter season will start, and it will last for around three months, at least at the mid-latitude zones. On the other side, the Southern Hemisphere is more exposed to the Sun during this tilting, so t receives more sunlight, and more direct sunlight, resulting in summer in this half of the planet.

How might an individual's own cells lead to false verdicts of guilt.
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Through a circumstance known as "secondary transfer DNA", or "Touch DNA".

Explanation:

Most times when a crime is committed, DNA samples are obtained from surfaces in the scene where the crime was committed. There is a very huge possibility of picking up the DNA of someone who was never at the scene of the crime and this is a result of a condition known as Touch DNA.

Because we touch several objects which can be moved to different locations and touch people who are also always mobile, our DNA cells can find their ways to a crime scene where we had never physically been to. This can lead to false verdicts of guilt.
