As the scientist, your role is to investigate issues involved with the
process of DNA Profiling. Some of the questions you will need to consider
are:
 | What is the process involved in DNA Profiling? |
| Is the privacy of the individual tested being upheld? |
| Are there steps in the process which are inaccurate or open to abuse or negligence? |
| Is it an accurate process? |
Remember to investigate these issues from the perspective of a Scientist.
