In STR,short tandem repeat,profiling,both _______________ and _____________________ are used to identify an individual.
A)length or the repeated sequence; number of fragments
B)rDNA; tRNA
C)specific genetic sequences; types of mRNA
D)mitochondrial DNA; number of fragments
E)mitochondrial DNA; specific genetic sequences

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In STR profiling, the length of the repeated sequence and the number of fragments are both used to identify an individual. These fragments are amplified by PCR and separated by size using electrophoresis, allowing the identification of unique fragment patterns for each individual. Genetic sequences, such as rDNA or mRNA, are not used in STR profiling. Mitochondrial DNA may be used in some types of DNA analysis but is not specifically mentioned in the question.
