DNA Explained in Simple Terms:-


                        DNA fingerprinting or DNA profiling or DNA typing is considered as the most significant contribution of science and technology in the twentieth century and is anticipated to become the universal technique  of the twenty first century.This emerging technique has revolutionized the whole world by distinguishing every individual from the other individual.It plays a momentous role in criminal and civil justice delivery systems,identification of skeletal remains,detection of early diseases,inherited disorders etc.


Deoxyribonucleic acid, more commonly known as DNA, is the complex chemical structure that uniquely identifies each and every organism. An organism’s complete set of DNA is known as a genome.DNA is the fundamental building block of the genome.DNA is located inside an organism’s chromosomes. A chromosome is a structure found in the cell nucleus that contains genes, which are the functional and physical unit of heredity passed from parent to offspring. Chromosomes are composed of DNA as well as proteins. Each parent contributes one Chromosome to each pair of a child’s chromosomes, so children get half of their chromosomes from their mothers and half from their fathers.

                        Now we know that every organism is made up of cells, which encompass chromosomes, which harbor our DNA. The specific position on a chromosome of a gene where DNA is located is known as a locus. The locus, which is a stretch of DNA, is what is analyzed for variability using different methods of testing.

                        The two main DNA tests are restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of short tandem repeats (STRs).other testing methods exist, but they lack accuracy and precision.

The Dayabhaga system prevails in Bengal, while the Mitakshara system is applicable to other parts of India. The difference between the two systems arises from the fact that, while the doctrine of religious efficacy is the guiding principle under Dayabhaga School, there is no such definite guiding principle under the Mitakshara School. Sometimes consanguinity, and at the other times, religious efficacy has been regarded as the guiding principle. According to ‘Mulla’, Mitakshara recognises two modes of devolution of property, namely, survivorship and succession. The rules of survivo...
