    Study Notes

    Forensic Science Activities

    • The main focus of Activity 1.3: The Traces We Leave Behind is on the traces of evidence left behind at a crime scene.

    Blood Typing

    • Activity 1.2: Reliable Witnesses involves determining blood types using agglutination testing.
    • Agglutination testing is a technique used to determine a person's blood type by observing clumping of blood.

    DNA Composition

    • DNA nucleotides are composed of a sugar molecule, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base.

    DNA Analysis

    • Restriction enzymes are used to cut DNA strands at specific sequences.
    • The main purpose of using restriction enzymes in DNA analysis is to cut DNA strands at specific sequences.

    Estimating Time of Death

    • The time of death can be calculated using temperature changes in a body.

    Evidence Analysis

    • Location data from devices such as GPS, mobile phones, and computers can be analyzed to determine a person's whereabouts over a period of time.

    Forensic Toxicology

    • The primary purpose of presumptive testing in forensic toxicology is to identify the presence of a substance or toxicant.
