In this lab you used DNA markers for paternity testing, but DNA markers are also used in murder and sexual assault cases. In these cases, DNA markers are used to determine if a crime scene sample such ats blood, skin cells, or semen originated from a suspect. Because the question being asked is if the suspect who left the sample at the crime scene, the DNA marker genotypes of the crime scene sample must exactly match the DNA marker genotypes of the suspect. If there is any difference between a suspect and sample from the crime scene, the suspect can be exonerated. An important control in such analysis is DNA from the victim which is analyzed to confirm that the genotype of DNA obtained did not derive from the victim. Below is a gel image representing use of a DNA marker in a sexual assault case. DNA from each person or sample was amplified with the same pair of primers. (This marker has many different alleles.) Examine the data and answer the questions below scene suspectsuspect suspect victim sample #1 How many different alleles exist for this marker? List each suspect who is exonerated by this data:
