Detailed explanation-1: -DNA fingerprinting is used in a variety of situations, such as criminal investigations, other forensic purposes and paternity testing. In these situations, one aims to “match” two DNA fingerprints with one another, such as a DNA sample from a known person and one from an unknown person.
Detailed explanation-2: -If the DNA sample from a suspect matches the DNA at a crime scene, then that signifies that the suspect in question was present at the crime scene (although the suspect may not have committed the crime).
Detailed explanation-3: -Our unique DNA, 0.1% of 3 billion, amounts to 3 million base pairs. That’s more than enough to provide a profile that accurately identifies a person. DNA is often left behind at a crime scene. It is present in all kinds of evidence, including blood, hair, skin, saliva, and semen.
