Answer:

The individuality of the finger print is due to the  ridge endings that differentiates one individual from another individual.

There are approximately 150 separate kinds of ridge found in general. Scientist identify the finger of the person by analyzing the two same fingerprints.

The application of finger print recognition helps in finding criminals by matching the finger print of the criminal and the finger print found on the crime scene.
