- You are a forensic scientist in charge of DNA samples in a case where a man was murdered. You conduct gel electrophoresis on the samples to determine the DNA profile of the samples. The rows of bands have been marked to make it easier to reference the bands. The sample marked 'evidence' came from under the victim's fingernails, likely indicating a struggle. There are two suspects in the case, both of whom are brothers, they are marked suspect 1 and suspect 2, for brother 1 and brother 2, respectfully. Does the evidence collected match the DNA profiles of either brother? If yes, which one? If no, then would it be likely that the actual criminal is a family member of the brothers? If yes, what could the relation be (mom, dad, cousin, aunt, or uncle)? Note: there is a sister in their family, their parents are both still alive, and they have a robust extended family. The brothers are not twins.arrow_forwardA carrier that moves DNA from one cell to another, such as a plasmid, is called a __________.arrow_forwardThe genotype designation AA is called In DNA replication, the two new strands are called In DNA replication, the new, short, single segments of nucleotides produced by enzymes, that make up the new replicated strand, are called ________________.
