...fingerprints. The four types of whorl patterns are plain, central pocket loop, double loop, and accidental loop. In an arch pattern, the ridges flow in one side and out the opposite side; and account for roughly five percent of all fingerprints. The two types of arch patterns are plain and tented. The three types of fingerprints that investigators may find at a crime scene are patent prints, plastic prints, and latent prints. Patent prints are visible prints that occur when a foreign substance on the skin of a person’s finger comes in direct contact with the smooth surface on another object. These prints are visible to the naked eye and typically occur when particles stick to the ridges of the fingers and are easily identifiable when left on an object. Plastic prints are those that occur when a finger leaves an indentation on a soft pliable surface. No enhancement is required in order to view these prints due to the impression that a finger leaves on the surface. Latent prints are impressions left by a finger that have secreted on a surface and are typically invisible to the naked eye. These prints are usually the result of perspiration from sweat pores in the ridges of fingerprints. IAFIS is a fingerprint scanning system that stands for...

...Fingerprinting Forensics Fingerprints are one of the most important things that link a suspect with a crime scene. Colin Beavan says, “Every human being carries with him his cradle to his grave certain physical marks which do not change their character, and by which he can always be identified - and that without shade of doubt or question. These marks are his signature, his physiological autograph, so to speak, and his autograph can not be counterfeited, nor can he disguise it or hide it away, nor can it become illegible by the wear and mutations of time. This signature is not his face- age can change that beyond recognition; it is not his hair, for that can fall out; it is not his height, for duplicates of that exist; it is not his form, for duplicates of that exist also, whereas this signature is this man’s very own- there is no duplicate of it among the swarming populations of the globe. This autograph consists of the delicate lines or corrugations with which Nature marks the insides of the hands and the soles of the feet” (Beavan 1). “A fingerprint expert can tell apart the marks of two digits more easily than he can differentiate two people’s faces “(Beavan 11). Fingerprints play a crucial role in criminal detection because they are unique, have a long history, and have many uses. To begin, Fingerprints are unique when it comes to crime detection. No two people have been found to have the same fingerprints—they are totally unique. There’s a one in a 64 billion chance that...

...have 2 fingerprints been found that are alike within humans and automated computer comparisons (www.onin.com). No 2 humans have the same finger, palm or footprint. These parts of the human body have ridges that are constantly broken up by endings or forks; these are called characteristics (www.south-wales.police.uk). Every person has unique distributions of the characteristics that build up in womb and throughout life in general, these characteristics stay the same for a time after death too so it makes identifying a body possible People have often tried to alter their fingerprints with different methods like cutting their fingerprints, burning the skin with acid but that doesn’t work because, superficial skin damage is repaired by the body so the same ridges come back with the new skin that forms Fingerprints are formed by our skin and our skin is made out of two layers, dermis and epidermis. The epidermis is a thin layer and it is a protective cover of the dermis which is the thicker layer of skin that contains sweat and sebaceous glands (www.south-wales.police.uk). Now a sweat gland consists of salt, water and urea and the sebaceous gland releases oils on the skin surface When we come in contact with something, we leave a mark because of the products that are produced by the glands, resulting in a fingerprint mark When our fingers are...

...According to the Fingerprint Sourcebook, uniqueness lies in embryology and early fetal development. The process of fetal finger development begins after cleavage divisions, and results in pre-patterning. Shortly after this a process known as gastrulation occurs and begins forming the primary tissues ectoderm, endoderm, and mesoderm; which later form into something different. The ectoderm tissue later forms into the epidermis which is the outer layer of the skin, the mesoderm forms the connective tissues of the dermis layer of skin, and the ectoderm forms organs. After this a process referred to as morphogenesis occurs which is the formation of shape. Limps start to grow (four weeks) and arms, legs, fingers, feet, and toes form (second month)....

...owner (Azimi, 2013). The practice of utilizing fingerprints as a mean of identification is referred as dactyloscopy, which is an indispensable aid to modern law enforcement (Hoover, 2016). The significance of fingerprint was discovered in late 19th century. Before then, people regarded fingerprints as ordinary curves without any specific importance or meaning. In Quran, Allah points to the fingertips which did not attract anyone’s attention at that time, and calls our attention to their importance in the fourth verse of surah Al-Qiyamah. The verse states “Yes, we are able to put together in perfect order the very tips of his fingers.” (Azimi, 2013) Formation of fingerprints Fingerprint is an impression made by the papillary ridges on the ends of the fingers. It afford an infallible means of personal identification, because the ridge arrangement on every finger of every human being is unique and does not alter with growth or age. It also serve to reveal an individual’s true identity despite personal denial, assumed names, or changes in personal appearance resulting from age, disease, plastic surgery or accident (Hoover, 2016). Each ridge of the epidermis (outer skin) is dotted with sweat pores for its entire length and is anchored to the dermis (inner skin) by a double row of peg-like papillae. Injuries such as superficial burns, abrasions, or cuts do not affect the ridge...

...Vale de Chambers when he was switched by Roxy. Which means the original Vale de Chambers went from slave to wealthy man and became Tom Driscoll. Dave takes copies of the kids fingerprints but between the ages of 7 and 8 months the were switched. Reading of one’s palm print also shows the past of that person. After finding out Luigi has killed a man Tom becomes shocked. “Just think of that, a man’s own hand keeps a record of the deepest and fatalist secrets in life” (Twain 63). After Dave reads Luigi’s hand he offers to read Tom’s hand to see if he has anything to hide. It was then when Dave took Tom’s hand, Tom became nervous. “‘Now Tom. I’ve never had a look at your palms’,...Tom snatched his hand away” (Twain 65) After Tom had mentioned the fact that a man’s own hand can expose him, he realizes he has secrets of his own that he does not want to be unearthed. The things that he is hiding are unknown, but presumably what he is hiding is the fact he is a slave. Using finger and palm prints as examples it is clear Mark Twain uses hands as a symbol for identification and exposition. In Pudd'nhead Wilson hands play a major role in the book. Fingerprints are used for identifying an individual. Whereas palm prints are used for exposition and revealing secrets ...

...The gesture is taking the index finger, and pulling the skin down under the eye. In Italian this gestures is called Intesa, which means to remember our agreement. Germany did not have this gesture. It was hard to find gestures in German. French, Italian, and German have the same hand gesture for okay. In French they usually just say ok like Americans do.

...The Book Kate skimmed through, with her fingers, through all the books in the library. She was in a hurry because she had to have this done before class started again. "I've looked at every one of the books in the library." I said out loud. "Shhh." The librarian took her index finger up to her lips. "Sorry" I apologized as I shrugged my shoulders. She soon went back at reading her book and i went back to complaining, in my head of course. I glimpsed at a stack of books I've never seen before. They must be the new books, I thought. I went over to have a good look at them. One of the bigger ones glittered in the sunlight. I tried to take it out to look at it but my fingers slipped so I tried again. The book seemed to be stuck. I stomped my foot in grief. I picked my one-month-old gum out of my mouth and stuck it behind my ear. Tried once again to tug the book out but just like me it was very stubborn and didn't want to leave. I felt something gushy on my shoe. I was losing my patience. I had no time for this. I gritted my teeth and lifted up my foot. Can you believe it, it was my GUM! I put my shoe back down on the ground. They can send me the bill when I have time. Aside from being brilliant and bright I was also stubborn, as I mentioned before. I tugged at it one more time. I had made up my decision that I was leaving with that book no matter what, even if I had to take the shelf with me! CREEK! I glanced up and saw as the bookcase went down, down, and did...
