coenzymes are organic molecules that are required by certain enzymes to carry out catalysis. They bind to the active site of the enzyme and participate in catalysis but are not considered substrates of the reaction.
2. List two situations where DNA fingerprinting is useful. DNA fingerprints can be used for determining a biological mother or father, identifying thesuspect of a crime, or clearing someone's name for a crime they were mistakenly accused orconvicted.
But DNA fingerprinting, when used for forensic science, makes use of probes that target regions of DNA that are specific to humans, thus eliminating any possibility of contamination by extraneous DNA from bacteria, plants, insects or other sources. The entire genetic information of an individual is called genome.
