Answer:
DNA fingerprinting is a method for comparing the DNA sequences of any two individuals. 99.9% of the base sequences in all human beings are identical. It is the remaining 0.1% that makes every individual unique.
The applications of DNA fingerprinting are as follows:
- DNA fingerprinting is widely used in forensics since DNA of every tissue from an individual has the same degree of polymorphism.
- DNA fingerprinting forms the basis of paternity testing since a child inherits polymorphism from both its parents.
- It can be used for studying evolution and genetic diversity in a population.
