NA fingerprinting uses a process called gel electrophoresis toseparate the fragments of DNA. Once the DNA fragments are sorted,the pattern of bands can be analyzed.

1)Gel Electrophoresis Procedure The smaller DNA fragments startto move away from the wells and the larger DNA fragments remaincloser to the wells.

2)An electric current is passed through the gel.

3) DNA fragments are treated with a dye.

4)A restriction endonuclease is added to the DNA.

5)Using micropipettes, the DNA samples are added to thewells.

6)DNA fingerprint is produced.

7)DNA fragments are produced.

The order in which a DNA fingerprint is produced using gelelectrophoresis is:___,____,___,____,____,____,____,____

In the rare case where PCR-based DNA fingerprinting fails to demonstrate a single guilty suspect, what other techniques can be used to analyze DNA from a crime scene?

1. For DNA fingerprinting, crime labs identify a person’s DNA fingerprint at each of the 3 loci: CSF1PO, TPOX and THO1. If each combination occurred with equal frequency, what is the probability that a randomly-chosen person would carry the same genotype as you at all three loci?

2. How many people in the would be expected to share a particular genotype for these 3 loci:

a. in the entire world (population 7 billion)?

b. in North Carolina (population 10 million)?
