DNA Profiling and use of DNA Profiling

DNA profiling is a technique to identify of individuals on the basis of their respective DNA profiles. DNA profiles are encrypted sets of numbers that reflect a person's DNA makeup, which can also be used as the person's identifier. DNA profiling should not be confused with full genome sequencing.It is used in, for example, parental testing, crime investigation and rape investigation.DNA profiling is being increasingly used to identify criminal suspects as well as in many other fields throughout the world.Apart from criminal investigations, DNA profiling is used in paternity test, immigration disputes, establishing family link, inheritance dispute and identifying unknown victims from accidents and disasters.DNA technology has also been used in a number or murder cases as well as in paternity tests.

    With the advent of new medical technology called Molecular Diagnostics, we have a new double edged sword for the new world order. While DNA and RNA analysis will prove useful in reducing medical costs and take the guess work out of prescribing drugs, there is the danger of DNA profiles being used in the nefarious new world order conspiracy for domination and control.

Brewster’s Law of Polarization of Light

Image
Brewster’s Law: In 1811 Brewster’s proposed it . When   Un-polarized   light is incident at the angle called Brewster’s angle or angle of polarization , the light that is reflected from the surface is therefore perfectly polarized . He was able to prove that the tangent of the angle of polarization is numerically equal to the refractive index of the medium. That is....

Difference between Orbit and an Orbital:

Image
Orbit Orbital As postulated by Bohr, an orbit is a definite circular path at a definite distance from the nucleus in which the electron revolve round the nucleus. Orbits are designated by the capital letters K, L, M, N…. etc. As postulate by wave nature of an electron, an orbital is a three-dimensional region around the nucleus within which the probability of finding an electron is maximum., Orbital’s are designated by s, p, d… etc. Orbits are circular in shape. Orbital’s have different shapes. It represents the planer motion of the electron. It represents the three-dimensional motion of the electro round the nucleus. An orbit indicates an exact position of an electron in an atom. An orbital does not specify the exact position of an electron in an atom. The maximum number of electro in an orbit is equal to 2n^2, where n is the number of the orbit. An orbital cannot acco

Dalton's Atomic Theory

Image
Dalton's Atomic Theory In 1800, Dalton   postulate some theory for atom called Dalton’s atomic theory. They are given bellow: 1) All matter is made of atoms. Atoms are indivisible and indestructible. 2) All atoms of a given element are identical in mass and properties 3) Compounds are formed by a combination of two or more different kinds of atoms. 4) A chemical reaction is a rearrangement  of atoms.
