1. A shooting has occurred between two males in a parking lot resulting in bleeding of both males. Casings from both guns were recovered in the parking lot. Both of the men survived their gunshots; however, one of the men was also stabbed twelve times resulting in his death. A knife was recovered from the other man's vehicle a few hours later. Autopsy of the stabbed man revealed that bone was struck during the stabbings. List 4 examples of biological evidence containing DNA from this scenario. 2. Using an example involving a crime scene scenario, briefly explain the 3 types of transfer DNA (primary, secondary, and tertiary). 3. Which type of DNA is inherited only maternally, only paternally, or by both parents? (write maternal, paternal, or both next to each type of DNA) a. Autosomal DNA ______________________________ b. Y-chromosome DNA __________________________ c. Mitochondrial DNA ___________________________ d. X DNA _____________________________________ 4. True or False. Identical twins have the same DNA, and therefore if a crime was committed by an identical twin, typical DNA analysis could not determine which twin matched the biological evidence at the crime scene. 5. Typically, biological evidence is collected from a crime scene by moistening a cotton
