Variations i DNA SNP’s: Small Nuclear Polymorphisms STR’s: Small Tandem Repeats STR’s gives the opportunity to separate them by size 02 -01 -2022 7
A person inherit a copy (allele) of a STR region from each of the parents HOMOZYGOTE: both alleles are of the same length (same number of repeats) HETEROZYGOTE: the alleles are of different length (unevenly number og repeats) 02 -01 -2022 8
