match the definition with the correct vocabulary.
all of the dna found in a human cell.
works to free the innocent, prevent wrongful convictions, and create fair, compassionate, and equitable systems of justice for everyone.
plicating) minute amounts of dna evidence for use in investigation.
sequence of repeating bases in noncoding regions of dna that are used in dna profiling.
region of repeating dna within an intron that is highly variable from person to person.

innocence project
short tandem repeats (str)
polymerase chain reaction (pcr)
genome
polymorphism

Explanation:

1. The total DNA content in a human cell is defined as the genome.
2. The Innocence Project is an organization focused on exonerating the wrongfully convicted and reforming justice systems.
3. Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is a lab technique that amplifies small DNA samples for investigation.
4. Short Tandem Repeats (STRs) are repeating noncoding DNA sequences used in DNA profiling.
5. Polymorphism refers to genetic regions (like repeating intron DNA) that vary between individuals.

Answer:

• All of the DNA found in a human cell. → genome
• works to free the innocent, prevent wrongful convictions, and create fair, compassionate, and equitable systems of justice for everyone. → Innocence Project
• (plicating) minute amounts of DNA evidence for use in investigation. → Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
• sequence of repeating bases in noncoding regions of DNA that are used in DNA profiling. → Short tandem repeats (STR)
• region of repeating DNA within an intron that is highly variable from person to person. → Polymorphism
