Which of the following will help you distinguish between the two final suspects?  

  You are a forensic technician working on a DNA sample obtained from a crime scene. Your job is to compare the unknown DNA sample with known DNA samples collected from five different suspects. Preliminary analysis using only a few DNA markers revealed that the unknown sample could possibly match two of the suspects. After consulting the case file, you find out that these two suspects are brothers (but not twins). You realize that you will have to do a more detailed analysis on the samples so that you can distinguish between the brothers and determine which brothers' DNA matches the unknown sample. A.  single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) B.  human genome map C.  linkage data D.  markers on the Y chromosome Clarify Question · What is the key concept addressed by the question? · What type of thinking is required? · What key words does the question contain?   Gather Content · What do you already know about genetic maps and DNA markers?   Consider Possibilities · Consider the different answer options.
