Polymorphic DNA is a stretch or multiple stretches of DNA that have high variability among individuals. Since the chance of DNA being different among these stretches in two different people, these pieces of DNA are commonly used for identification purposes.

What are the examples of polymorphic viruses?
1260 is a computer virus developed by Mark Washburn in 1989. This virus used a form of polymorphic encryption in it's code which randomized the algorithm used by the virus but kept the core function of it intact. Polymorphic code does this by infecting files with an encrypted copy of itself, then varying it's signature by randomizing its decryption algorithm. Then it repeats. Hope this helped, here's some relevant info on the subject:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1260_(computer_virus)http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Washburnhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_computer_viruses_and_worms--Answered by Alix Saunders
Who developed the first DNA identification system?
The Max speed would be about 5 5 since that iis the speed limit.
What is a vector used for in a genetic engineering experiment?
"Vector" is an agent that can carry a DNA fragment into a host cell. If it is used for reproducing the DNA fragment, it is called a "cloning vector". If it is used for expressing certain gene in the DNA fragment, it is called an "expression vector".
What is DNA lipase used for in genetic engineering?
The DNA lipases are the paste enzyme which helps to join the broken DNA fragments in genetic engineering
In what industries are synthetic genomics used?
Synthetic genomics are used in health industries that study DNA. DNA insdustries study DNA with microscopes and determine different things about the genetic make up of humans.
Why are the pattens in the human iris suitable for identification purposes?
It is very interesting that no two are exactly alike any more than fingerprints or DNA. Retinal patterns are also used for identification.
When was DNA first used for forensic identification?

What part of an organism can be used identification?
The part of an organism that can be used for identification is the nucleus. The nucleus contains DNA which is unique to each person.

How is DNA related to forensics?
forensics is used for identification matters. DNA analysis, with recent technological advances makes it much easier to connect a suspect to a crime scene.
Should DNA identification be required at birth?
Yes
