Finger Printing |
|
|
|
Introduction:
Look at the palm of your hands
and your fingertips. You will see patterns of ridges that are called
fingerprints. The natural body oils and sweat collects in these
ridges of the skin so that when you touch things, you leave behind
an impression of your print. Fingerprint ridges are useful because
they give your hands a better grip when you pick something up.
But since fingerprints are unique, they have also become a common
and foolproof method of identification. |
