This image shows electrophoresis results for 3 microsatellite markers (D8S1179, D12S91 and D19S433) that are part of a DNA fingerprint analysis of a crime scene DNA sample. Assuming random mating, use the frequency information for each allele detected here to calculate the probability that a person in the general population will have the genotype shown here for these three markers.
