Forensic Science

Particles patterns help distinguish two different object even the two objects are of the same objects. For example, the soil in America and the soil in Asia, while both are soils, the particles of the 2 soils are different and help distinguish them. Same in forensic when distinguishing between soils, poisons, blood, contamination and even our DNA are made of particles and aredistinguish because different DNA has different particle arrangement.

In order to be a Forensic Scientist there are various Forensic Sciences...

Computational forensics concerns the development of algorithms and software to assist forensic examination.

Criminalistics is the application of various sciences to answer questions relating to examination and comparison of biological evidence, trace evidence, impression evidence (such as fingerprints, footwear impressions, and tire tracks), controlled substances, ballistics, firearm and toolmark examination, and other evidence in criminal investigations.

Card Forensics

Trace evidence analysis is the analysis and comparison of trace evidence including glass, paint, fibres and hair.

Wildlife Forensic Science applies a range of scientific disciplines to legal cases involving non-human biological evidence, to solve crimes such as poaching, animal abuse, and trade in endangered species.

Some cons of ballistics include limitations in accuracy, particularly over long distances or in adverse weather conditions. Additionally, the study and analysis of ballistics can be complex and requires specialized knowledge and equipment. Finally, ballistic evidence can be affected by various external factors, such as the type of firearm used or the condition of the ammunition.

One of the main advantages of ballistics in forensics is that it helps to narrow down which firearm was used in a crime. There are no disadvantages to using ballistics.

It appears that "maspectromator" is not a recognized term in the field of science or technology. It may be a misspelling or a combination of two separate terms. If you provide more context or clarification, I can try to help further.

Forensic scientists provide expert testimony in court based on their analysis of physical evidence related to a crime. They may present their findings on fingerprints, DNA, ballistics, toxicology, or other scientific evidence to help establish facts or link a suspect to a crime scene. Their testimony is used to assist the judge and jury in reaching a verdict.

Forensic scientists use iodine fuming to detect latent fingerprints by sublimating solid iodine crystals, which react with oils and fats on the skin. The iodine forms a visible brown color on the fingerprint ridges, making them easier to visualize and collect as evidence.

Actually, some plastic bags contain "static electricity" that can/could remove or at the very least alter any evidence placed in the bag. Therefore, compromising the integrity of the "evidence" placed in it.

Rifling marks, the marks etched into a bullet as it travels through a gun's barrel, are to a gun as fingerprints are to a person. To see if a fired round came from a particular gun, the gun is test fired into a pool of water (to stop the bullet without changing its shape) then the marks on the test fired bullet and the bullet in question are compared.

Knowing the trajectory of a bullet points you in the direction of its origination.

There are also some clues that will help you determine from how far a shot was fired, such as approximate speed on impact and the presence of burnt gunpowder.

A forensic analyst would typically look in the operating system's process list or use forensic tools to identify any hooked processes. Hooking is a technique used to intercept function calls or events in a system, so identifying hooked processes can help in understanding potential tampering or malicious activity in a system.

Fibers found at a crime scene can provide valuable information such as the type of material, color, and potentially where it came from. By analyzing fibers, investigators can connect suspects to crime scenes or link different crime scenes together. This evidence can help establish a timeline of events and create a stronger case in court.

Dr. Edmond Locard, a French forensic scientist, is credited with being the first person to apply the principles of forensic science to a working laboratory setting. Locard also established the world's first forensic laboratory in Lyon, France in 1910.

Bullets are typically collected at a crime scene using evidence collection protocols such as wearing gloves, using proper tools like forceps or tweezers, and placing each bullet in a separate container to prevent cross-contamination. It is important to document and label each bullet with relevant information like location found and any identifying marks. Law enforcement should follow proper chain of custody procedures to ensure the integrity of the evidence.

Yes! Of course a forensic scientist has benefits! Number one, they get paid a lot. Number two, they are the hero of an innocent person who is being accused. Other than that I'm not sure but i bet there's a lot more.

A candle gives off a warm, soft glow through the process of combustion. The light emitted is primarily in the visible spectrum, which appears yellow or orange in color. This type of light is known as incandescent light.

Yes, biology plays a vital role in forensic science. It helps in areas such as DNA analysis, toxicology, and entomology, which are crucial for solving crimes and identifying individuals. Understanding biological principles is essential for analyzing evidence and providing accurate conclusions in forensic investigations.

Edmond Locard was the first person to apply principles of forensic science to a working crime laboratory. He applied what is called the Locard's exchange principle to a working crime laboratory.

No, forensic scientists analyze physical evidence in a laboratory setting, while forensic detectives investigate crime scenes and gather evidence in the field. Both roles work together to solve crimes, with scientists providing analysis and detectives conducting investigations.

A Forensics Expert is anyone who is an expert int something that pertains to the court system. It is broadly used to refer to anyone involved in collecting evidence at the scene of a crime but can also refer to any expert involved in dealing with items recovered or relating to a crime.

The father of forensic ballistics is Calvin Hooker Goddard, who is credited with pioneering the field by using a comparison microscope to analyze bullets and firearms. His work laid the foundation for modern forensic ballistics analysis.

Well the first thing they have to do is put on a forensic suit on so non of your finger print ect cross cross contaminate the evidence, you get a sterile police evidence bad pick it up with tweezers and put it in the bag then you sigh your name on the bag when any body else handles it they have to sigh it so people know that they have handled it

The two phases in a forensic scientist's analytical scheme are identification and comparison. Identification involves determining the nature or category of evidence collected, while comparison involves comparing the evidence with known samples to establish possible links or associations.

White powder found at a crime scene can be collected using a clean, dry tool such as a spoon, spatula, or brush. The powder should be carefully gathered and placed into a clean container, such as a paper bindle, to preserve any evidence for further analysis by forensic experts. Protective gear, like gloves and a mask, should be worn during collection to avoid contamination.
