What is the least common fingerprint?
The arch is the least common fingerprint. The arch is the least common fingerprint.
Does finger print recognize you as a person?
A fingerprint identifies you as a person. At least, I think so. Chimpanzees also have fingerprints, and if the police found a chimp fingerprint on a stolen car, they'd probably think it was from a human. But it wouldn't match any known criminals. Let's just take your left thumbprint. It's different from your other thumb. It's different from mine, and it's different from everyone else's, even your "identical" twin's thumbprint.
What is biometrics using fingerprint?
Biometrics is defined as using physiological characteristics of an individual for identification purposes. There are many forms of biometric identification including: fingerprint, finger vein, palm vein, iris recognition, retinal scans, facial recognition, voice recognition, hand geometry and others. Fingerprint biometric identification is by far the most popular modality and it uses a person's fingerprint (regardless of which one) as the basis for identification in a biometric authentication system. However, since a certain percentage of the population has unidentifiable fingerprints due to age, degradation or cuts, bruises or scrapes, it is not considered the most reliable form of biometric identification. It is usually, however, the least expensive.
What is the least common finger print?
Loopy or Curvy
What are some characteristics of fingerprints that make them different from one another?
Plain ArchThis fingerprint is characterized by a slightly rising ridge pattern that flows from one side of the finger to the other. According to The Science Spot, the arch family of fingerprint types comprises less than 5 percent of all fingerprints and is therefore the least common.Tented ArchLike a plain arch, the ridges flow from one side of the finger to the other. However, in the middle the ridges rise sharply, forming a tent-like structure.Ulnar LoopA loop is formed when fingerprint ridges turn backward but do not twist completely around. Loops are classified by the direction they turn when looking at the fingerprint on the hand, not a fingerprinting card. An ulnar loop turns toward the little finger.Radial LoopLike an ulnar loop, this type of fingerprint is defined by its appearance on the hand. A radial loop turns toward the thumb.Plain WhorlA plain whorl fingerprint appears to create an unbroken circular patter reminiscent of a spiral or swirl. This is the most common type of fingerprint.Central Pocket WhorlIn this type, one or more of the central ridges recurves to form a smaller inner whorl.Double Loop WhorlThis type of fingerprint also might be a twinned loop or lateral pocket loop. According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, although there are subtle differences between these three types, the bureau chose to classify all under Double Loop Whorl rather than attempt to distinguish them. Double loop whorl and twinned loop both appear to be two distinct loops that curve back on one another in opposing directions, similar to the yin-yang pattern. A lateral pocket loop makes a sharp turn back, forming a central pocket.Central Pocket LoopClassified as a composite fingerprint, the loop recurves within itself to form a pocket.AccidentalA composite fingerprint described as either a loop or a whorl, accidental type fingerprints possess two or more characteristics of the tented arch, whorl or loop families combined. The plain arch is not included because it does not have any distinctive characteristics.
What is the least common fingerprint?
The arch is the least common fingerprint. The arch is the least common fingerprint.
Which of these items is least likely to provide DNA evidence?
Fingerprint
How can type at the rate on the computer?
If you want to learn to type fast, it helps a lot to learn ten-finger typing, and to do at least most typing (at the very least, the letters) without having to look at the keyboard.
What is the name of the pinky finger?

How many fingerprint points you need to make a match?
The points are called "Minutiae". For a DA, ADA, or any prosecuting attorney to make a case off your finger prints they will need at least 10 Minutiae Points. Of course the more the merrier. The more would make the case stronger. But 10 will do it.
Can they get your fingerprints of a knife that was in the water?
The answer is yes. Fingerprint are left by the oil on your skin, and are therefore water resistant, at least for a while.

How do you do level 12 on 100 exits?
Hold your finger down on the finger scanner for at least 10 seconds
Can you make your finger nail curl?
No. Not naturally, at least.

You hit your finger with a hammer and finger goes numb why is it numb- at least for short period of time?
Probably due to damage of the nerve cells in your finger.
