  • how forensic scientists take advantage of genomic
    variations in noncoding regions of DNA
  • the techniques of polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
    and gel electrophoresis
  • Introduction In recent years, law enforcement
    has been revolutionized by molecular biology.
    When human tissues are left behind at crime
    scenes, these tissues can be collected and
    processed to yield samples of DNA, which can then
    be treated to isolate specific DNA fragments that
    are highly variable in the human population.

  • There is a fierce competition among individuals
    within any species, humans included, to gain
    access to reproductive privileges. The fittest
    a term that signifies the largest, prettiest,
    and most sexually attractive members, succeed in
    predominantly mating and having offspring, while
    the less attractive ones often do not. What is
    the role of such sexual selection from an
    evolutionary standpoint?

    the framework of Darwinian evolution, how natural
    selection crafted such an organ.
