Question

1. the millionaire, mr. big, has just died. he has left behind a wife, daughter and a large inheritance. the news of his death has brought forth 2 men who claim to be the long lost son of mr. & mrs. big. before mr. & mrs. big were married they had an illegitimate child and had placed him up for adoption. they had tried to find him after they became wealthy but had no luck in locating him. a dna sample was taken from mrs. big, the big daughter and the two men who claim to be the long lost son. which, if any, of the men are telling the truth? mom: daughter son 1 son 2

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze DNA band patterns

Compare DNA bands of mom, daughter, son 1 and son 2. A child inherits half of their DNA from their mother.

Step2: Check for matches

Look for DNA bands in the sons that match the mother's bands. Son 1 has several bands that match the mother's DNA bands, while son 2 has very few matching bands.

Answer:

Son 1 is likely the long - lost son.
