match the definition with the correct vocabulary.
nuclear cell structure that contains dna in humans
picture of the paired homologous chromosomes and sex chromosomes in a cell.
dna used to identify a persons mother; mitochondria are inherited through the cytoplasm of the egg.
the fbis computerized dna databases as well as the software used to run these databases; includes the national dna index system (ndis).
\molecular scissors\; a molecule that cuts a dna molecule at a specific section of dna
combined dna index system (codis)
nuclear dna
karyotype
restriction enzyme
mitochondrial dna

Explanation:

Each definition is matched to the corresponding term based on core biological/forensic genetics definitions:

1. The nucleus holds nuclear DNA, so the first definition links to Nuclear DNA.
2. A karyotype is a visual display of all a cell's chromosomes, including homologous and sex chromosomes.
3. Mitochondrial DNA is maternally inherited via egg cytoplasm.
4. CODIS is the FBI's combined DNA database system that includes NDIS.
5. Restriction enzymes are known as "molecular scissors" that cut specific DNA sections.

Answer:

• Nuclear cell structure that contains DNA in humans: Nuclear DNA
• picture of the paired homologous chromosomes and sex chromosomes in a cell: Karyotype
• DNA used to identify a person's mother; mitochondria are inherited through the cytoplasm of the egg: Mitochondrial DNA
• the FBI's computerized DNA databases as well as the software used to run these databases; includes the National DNA Index System (NDIS): Combined DNA Index System (CODIS)
• "molecular scissors"; a molecule that cuts a DNA molecule at a specific section of DNA: Restriction Enzyme
