<h2>DNA fingerprinting</h2>

Explanation:

  • DNA fingerprinting compares mitochondrial DNA samples."True" statement because this technique is used for analysis of paternity cases by the forensic scientist to examine the child's DNA with parents.
  • DNA fingerprinting compares X chromosomes. "False" statement because technique is used for DNA and Y chromosomes loci not for compare the x chromosome.
  • DNA fingerprinting decreases the necessary sample size. "true" statement this is because through the use of this tecnique DNA sample is decrease due to the use of PCR, RFLP, methods it will be divided into small fragments.
  • DNA fingerprinting increase the amount of evidences. "False" statement because this technique decrease the amount of sample as discuss in step 3 of the answer.
  • Dna fingerprinting compares Y chromosomes. "True"  statement because in DNA databases this technique is used to locate the y chromosome loci. to identify the segment of DNA
  • Hence, the answer is "True,false,True,false,True".

Approximately what percentage of the human genome actually codes for proteins?
34kurt

The correct answer is: 2.5%

The vast majority of the human genome (97.5%) is comprised of non-coding DNA with different functions. Non-coding DNA includes telomeres, introns, non-coding RNA genes and gene regulatory sequences.

• Telomeres-ends of DNA with protective role (prevents shortening of DNA),

• Non-coding RNA genes-e.g. genes for tRNA,

• Gene regulatory sequences such as promoter, enhancers and silencers.
