"Fingerprints" are impressions made by the ridge detail on your fingers. "Genetic fingerprints" is a term usually used to refer to identification methods such as DNA. Fingerprint identification has been used for many years - the 1st US criminal court case was in 1911 - and newer identification methods such as DNA analysis often compare themselves to existing methods with the existing terminology to show their similar dependability.

These two different methods are both very useful but each has it's own strengths and limitations. For example. identical twins have the same DNA, but not the same fingerprints.

How does the voltage measured across a dry cell ompare with the voltage drop measured across three bulbs in series?

The voltage measured across a dry cell is the total voltage output of the cell, typically around 1.5 volts. When three bulbs are connected in series, the total voltage drop across the bulbs will be the same as the voltage output of the dry cell. So, the voltage measured across the dry cell is equal to the voltage drop measured across the three bulbs in series.

When you swing a baseball bat how does the output distance the end of the bat moves ompare wih the distance you move your hands through why might this difference be usefull?

When you swing a baseball bat, the end of the bat moves a greater distance than your hands due to the leverage created by the bat's length. This difference is beneficial because it allows for a larger radius of movement, generating greater speed and force at the end of the bat, which can result in a more powerful hit. Essentially, the longer the lever (the bat), the more distance and momentum can be transferred to the ball, enhancing performance.
