1. DNA fingerprinting is also called DNA . 2. Who is the scientist credited with starting DNA fingerprinting? 3. of everyone’s DNA is the same. 4. What does “STR” stand for? 5. What are STRs? 6. The names of the three people in this video who have different STRs are ● ● ● 7. To cut the STRs we use restriction . 8. Then to the DNA (make more copies of the DNA), we use polymerase chain (PCR). 9. To use gel electrophoresis, you put each person’s DNA into in a gel. 10. Because DNA is negatively charged, it is pulled to the end. 11. For DNA profiling, scientists use (the number) different sections of DNA to compare. 12. Who committed the “murder?” 13. We know this because this person’s match the from DNA at the crime scene. 14. The FBI now uses (the number) different areas of the for STRs.

Mike was adopted, and his biological family history is unknown. although he is healthy, he would like some understanding of his genetic makeup, including potential health risks and genes that he could pass on to his children. mike has heard about commercial laboratories that can compare segments of your dna to those of people with common hereditary diseases in order to give you some idea of how susceptible you are to the diseases. the results of these types of tests are highly inconclusive. if mike's dna showed that he shares similarities in a segment of dna with people who have a given disease, his chances of developing that disease or passing it on to his children may be slightly elevated, but they are not 100 percent. these tests can cost more than $2,500 and are not covered by many insurance companies. do you think that mike should undergo the genetic tests? explain your answer. what are the potential pros and cons of having such tests done? describe how the availability of these genetic tests might affect the frequency of genetic diseases in individuals and populations.

Researchers determine that the biodiversity in a woodland region is declining. they identify two major threats to the region's biodiversity, a method to address each threat, and the expected outcome of each method. this information is shown in the table. threat method number of species that benefit number of years to see benefit habitat fragmentation reforestation 450 8 introduced prey species biological augmentation 150 2 which statement is an accurate explanation of the information in the table? a. biological augmentation would benefit only a few species because it is typically not very effective. b. biological augmentation would take less time to be effective because it targets the majority of prey species. c. reforestation would take the longest time to be effective because trees take several years to grow. d. reforestation would not benefit many species because most forest species live on the ground.
