Since we now have the technology to use genetic fingerprinting to catch criminals, should we make every US resident provide a bl
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

It can be easily exploited by criminals, and it puts our undercover police officers and FBI officers in danger. Also, police officers are already swamped with work and criminal activity as is. It would also be ridiculously hard to get everybody already registered as a resident it the U.S. Take into account the different family types, and how hard it is for single mothers with children.

On the other hand, adding this, despite the obvious hardships, will make catching criminals much easier. Our blood DNA is unique to every human being. It would be extremely helpful to have a system like this in place. This would, at first, be hard to establish, but once it settles in, police officers would be able to spend much more time at home with their families instead of filling out paperwork for overtime.

What is a similarity between DNA and RNA
jarptica [38.1K]
Let's use process of elimination to answer this question!

D is wrong, and we know this because of the names of DNA and RNA. The D in DNA stands for deoxyribose, and the R in RNA stands for ribose. These are the types of sugars in each nucleic acid. Therefore, they don't both contain a ribose sugar.

C is wrong, and this is because RNA does not contain thymine, but uracil instead.

B is wrong, and we know this because we know that RNA is composed of only one strand, and therefore it is not composed of multiple stands (plural).

Therefore, A must be right. We can confirm this, because we know that polymers are large molecules consisting of repeated subunits. DNA and RNA are both polymers consisting of nucleotides.<span />
