- Abstract
Introduction: Dermatoglyphics is scientific study of fingerprints. It is the process of taking the impression of papillary ridges. A series of ridges enter the pattern area on one side of the digit, curves, and leaves on the same side. Fingerprints are likewise influenced by a man's domain while creating in the womb. Along these lines, you may have seen a few cases of unique mark designs likely being acquired. In any case, this might not have dependably been the situation for people you know to be firmly related. Materials and Methods: The right thumbs of parents and their biological children regardless of their genders were collected and observed and unrelated individuals' right thumbprints were also taken for the study. The presence and absence of loops were observed for this research. Results: More than 60% of the fingerprints sample (presence and absence of loops) of genetically related individuals are matched. Conclusion: Fingerprints are, hence, found to be hereditary to an extent to which they still remain unique and different. The inclusion of other patterns may increase the similarities of the fingerprints. This may be of significance in the future pertaining to the department of forensics.
