The video tutorial explains DNA profiling, a technique used to identify individuals based on their unique DNA sequences. It covers the sources of DNA, such as teeth, bones, and body fluids, and discusses the applications of DNA profiling in solving crimes, paternity disputes, and disease diagnosis. The tutorial also highlights the challenges and ethical issues associated with DNA profiling, including its high cost, potential for human error, and privacy concerns.

What makes each person's DNA unique?

• The shape of the DNA molecule

• The number of chromosomes

• The length of the DNA strands

• The sequence of nitrogenous bases

Where can DNA be found in the human body?

• In fingernails

• In the outer layer of skin

• In body fluids like blood and saliva

• In cut hair

What is the primary use of DNA profiling in crime investigations?

• To determine the age of a suspect

• To match DNA evidence from a crime scene to a suspect

• To identify the gender of a suspect

• To find the location of a suspect

In a crime scene investigation, what does it mean if the DNA profile does not match the suspect?

• The suspect was at the crime scene

• The DNA test was incorrect

• The suspect is innocent

• The suspect is guilty

How is DNA profiling used in paternity disputes?

• By comparing the child's DNA with potential fathers

• By comparing the child's DNA with grandparents

• By comparing the child's DNA with siblings

• By comparing the child's DNA with the mother's

What is a key difference between DNA profiling for crime solving and paternity testing?

• Neither requires 100% DNA match

• Crime solving requires 100% DNA match

• Paternity testing requires 100% DNA match

• Both require 100% DNA match

What is a major challenge of DNA profiling?

• It is inexpensive

• It is a quick process

• It can be done in any laboratory

• It requires sophisticated equipment

Why might DNA profiling be considered an invasion of privacy?

• It requires public disclosure of DNA

• It involves physical harm

• It can be used without consent

• It is always inaccurate

What is a potential risk of human error in DNA profiling?

• Inaccurate DNA sequencing

• All of the above

• Incorrect labeling of samples

• Misinterpretation of results

What is a potential consequence of not having a comprehensive DNA database?

• Inability to match DNA profiles to unknown individuals

• More accurate DNA matches

• Increased cost of DNA profiling

• Faster processing of DNA samples
