Summary Introduction
To review:
Profile probability and the information required to calculate it.
Introduction:
Once the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) profile is generated using the necessary techniques, it is important to match them with the existing data or from the suspects. Profile probability, also known as random match probability is done after DNA profiling in

- Corn plants from a test plot are measured, and the distribution of heights at 10-cm intervals is recorded in the following table: Height (cm) Plants (no.) 100 20 110 60 120 90 130 130 140 180 150 120 160 70 170 50 180 40 Calculate (a) the mean height, (b) the variance, (c) the standard deviation, and (d) the standard error of the mean.
