DNA fingerprinting involves identifying differences in some specific regions of DNA sequence called repetitive DNA because

In human beings 99.9% of genome sequence are same in all individuals only 0.1% of genome differ that

Depending on base composition, length of segment and number of repetitive units, the satellite DNA is classified into many categories such as

DNA fingerprinting is the basis of paternity testing in case of dispute because

The sensitivity of fingerprinting technique has been increased by use of

DNA fingerprinting or genetic finger printing is the process of

Typically DNA content of about 100000 cells or 1 microgram is required for fingerprinting. If the sample obtained is less it is increased by

Statement I: DNA finger printing is highly reliable method of identification of individual involved in crimes.
Statement II: DNA a fingerprinting is a sure method in solving paternity and maternity disputes.
Statement III: DNA fingerprinting can be used to cure HIV infection.

The hybridization of probes having radioactive isotopes with various sequence of nitrogen bases with ssVNTR is called

Assertion: VNTR of two persons may be similar at certain sites but could be different at other sites.
Reason: A child inherits 50% of chromosomes from mother and remaining 50% from father.
