There are three main fingerprint patterns: loops, whorls, and arches. Loops make up 60-65% of the population and contain one delta. Whorls consist of 30-35% and contain two or more deltas. Arches are the rarest at up to 5% and contain no deltas. Within each category there can be sub-patterns like double loops, central loops, tented arches, and accidental patterns. The document instructs to label fingerprints from hands and identify three points within each right hand print.

A fingerprint is an impression of the friction ridges on all parts of the finger. A friction ridge is a raised portion of the epidermis on the palmar (palm) or digits (fingers and toes) or plantar (sole) skin, consisting of one or more connected ridge units of friction ridge skin. These are sometimes known as "epidermal ridges" which are caused by the underlying interface between the dermal papillae of the dermis and the interpapillary (rete) pegs of the epidermis. These epidermal ridges serve to amplify vibrations triggered when fingertips brush across an uneven surface, better transmitting the signals to sensory nerves involved in fine texture perception. The ridges do not assist in gripping objects, sometimes in fact reducing grip to as much as 30% compared to completely smooth fingerpads.

Formation of fingerprint, Types of fingerprint found at the crime scene, Fundamental principles of Fingerprint, Characteristics feature of Fingerprints, fingerprint patterns and their structure
Plain arch
In this pattern a consistency of flow can be observed. It starts on one side of the finger and the ridge then slightly cascades upward. This almost resembles a wave out on the ocean and then the arch continues its journey along the finger to the other side. The plain arch pattern is the simplest of the fingerprints to discern.
Tented arch
The similarity between this pattern and the plain arch is that it starts on one side of the finger and flows out to the other side in a similar pattern. However, the difference is that the tented arch lies in the ridges in the centre and is not continuous like the plain arch. They have significant up thrusts in the ridges near the middle that arrange themselves on both sides of an axis. The adjoining ridges converge towards this axis and thus appear to form tents.
Radial loops
These loops are named after a bone in the forearm known as radius that joins the hand on the same side as the thumb. The flow of these loops runs in the direction of the radius bone i.e. the downward slope of the radial loop is from the little finger towards the thumb of the hand. These loops are not very common and most of the times will be found on the index fingers.
Ulnar loops
These are named after a bone in the forearm called ulna. This bone is on the same side as the little finger and the flow of this pattern runs from the thumb towards the little finger of the hand.
Double loop
This pattern consists of two distinct and separate loop formations. It has two distinct and separate shoulders for each core, two deltas and one or more ridges that make a complete circuit. There is at least one re-curving ridge within the inner pattern area between the two loop formations that gets touched or cut when an imaginary line is drawn.
Plain whorl
The ridges in these whorls make a turn of one complete circuit with two deltas and are therefore circular or spiral in shape. This is the simplest form of whorl and also the most common.
Central pocket loop whorl
These whorls consist of at least one re-curving ridge or an obstruction at right angles to the line of flow with two deltas and if an imaginary line is drawn in between then no re-curving ridge within the pattern area will be touched or cut. These whorl ridges make one complete circuit and may be oval, circular, spiral or any variant of a circle.
Accidental whorl
The composition of the pattern in accidental whorl is derived from two distinct types of patterns that have at least two deltas. Therefore whorls containing ridges that match the characteristics of a particular whorl sub-grouping are referred to as accidental whorls.
Observation of Io’s Resurfacing via Plume Deposition Using Ground-based Adapt...Sérgio Sacani
Since volcanic activity was first discovered on Io from Voyager images in 1979, changes
on Io’s surface have been monitored from both spacecraft and ground-based telescopes.
Here, we present the highest spatial resolution images of Io ever obtained from a groundbased telescope. These images, acquired by the SHARK-VIS instrument on the Large
Binocular Telescope, show evidence of a major resurfacing event on Io’s trailing hemisphere. When compared to the most recent spacecraft images, the SHARK-VIS images
show that a plume deposit from a powerful eruption at Pillan Patera has covered part
of the long-lived Pele plume deposit. Although this type of resurfacing event may be common on Io, few have been detected due to the rarity of spacecraft visits and the previously low spatial resolution available from Earth-based telescopes. The SHARK-VIS instrument ushers in a new era of high resolution imaging of Io’s surface using adaptive
optics at visible wavelengths.

Introduction:
RNA interference (RNAi) or Post-Transcriptional Gene Silencing (PTGS) is an important biological process for modulating eukaryotic gene expression.
It is highly conserved process of posttranscriptional gene silencing by which double stranded RNA (dsRNA) causes sequence-specific degradation of mRNA sequences.
dsRNA-induced gene silencing (RNAi) is reported in a wide range of eukaryotes ranging from worms, insects, mammals and plants.
This process mediates resistance to both endogenous parasitic and exogenous pathogenic nucleic acids, and regulates the expression of protein-coding genes.
What are small ncRNAs?
micro RNA (miRNA)
short interfering RNA (siRNA)
Properties of small non-coding RNA:
Involved in silencing mRNA transcripts.
Called “small” because they are usually only about 21-24 nucleotides long.
Synthesized by first cutting up longer precursor sequences (like the 61nt one that Lee discovered).
Silence an mRNA by base pairing with some sequence on the mRNA.
Discovery of siRNA?
The first small RNA:
In 1993 Rosalind Lee (Victor Ambros lab) was studying a non- coding gene in C. elegans, lin-4, that was involved in silencing of another gene, lin-14, at the appropriate time in the
development of the worm C. elegans.
Two small transcripts of lin-4 (22nt and 61nt) were found to be complementary to a sequence in the 3' UTR of lin-14.
Because lin-4 encoded no protein, she deduced that it must be these transcripts that are causing the silencing by RNA-RNA interactions.
Types of RNAi ( non coding RNA)
MiRNA
Length (23-25 nt)
Trans acting
Binds with target MRNA in mismatch
Translation inhibition
Si RNA
Length 21 nt.
Cis acting
Bind with target Mrna in perfect complementary sequence
Piwi-RNA
Length ; 25 to 36 nt.
Expressed in Germ Cells
Regulates trnasposomes activity
MECHANISM OF RNAI:
First the double-stranded RNA teams up with a protein complex named Dicer, which cuts the long RNA into short pieces.
Then another protein complex called RISC (RNA-induced silencing complex) discards one of the two RNA strands.
The RISC-docked, single-stranded RNA then pairs with the homologous mRNA and destroys it.
THE RISC COMPLEX:
RISC is large(>500kD) RNA multi- protein Binding complex which triggers MRNA degradation in response to MRNA
Unwinding of double stranded Si RNA by ATP independent Helicase
Active component of RISC is Ago proteins( ENDONUCLEASE) which cleave target MRNA.
DICER: endonuclease (RNase Family III)
Argonaute: Central Component of the RNA-Induced Silencing Complex (RISC)
One strand of the dsRNA produced by Dicer is retained in the RISC complex in association with Argonaute
ARGONAUTE PROTEIN :
1.PAZ(PIWI/Argonaute/ Zwille)- Recognition of target MRNA
2.PIWI (p-element induced wimpy Testis)- breaks Phosphodiester bond of mRNA.)RNAse H activity.
MiRNA:
The Double-stranded RNAs are naturally produced in eukaryotic cells during development, and they have a key role in regulating gene expression .
This presentation explores a brief idea about the structural and functional attributes of nucleotides, the structure and function of genetic materials along with the impact of UV rays and pH upon them.
THE IMPORTANCE OF MARTIAN ATMOSPHERE SAMPLE RETURN.Sérgio Sacani
The return of a sample of near-surface atmosphere from Mars would facilitate answers to several first-order science questions surrounding the formation and evolution of the planet. One of the important aspects of terrestrial planet formation in general is the role that primary atmospheres played in influencing the chemistry and structure of the planets and their antecedents. Studies of the martian atmosphere can be used to investigate the role of a primary atmosphere in its history. Atmosphere samples would also inform our understanding of the near-surface chemistry of the planet, and ultimately the prospects for life. High-precision isotopic analyses of constituent gases are needed to address these questions, requiring that the analyses are made on returned samples rather than in situ.
2. Fingerprint types
While fingerprints are unique to each individual, there
are three general categories that fingerprints can be
placed into.
Loop: 60-65% of the population
Whorl: 30-35% of the population
Arch: up to 5% of the population
All categories are determined by the number of deltas
found within the pattern.
3. About the patterns
Any fingerprint pattern which contains 2 or more delta's
will be a whorl pattern.
If a print contains no delta's then it is an arch pattern.
If it contains one (and only one) delta it will be a loop
pattern.
Later you will learn that the names are not as strait
forward as the rules suggest
7. Composite Patterns
Within the general categories, there are several
different types of each print based on some major or
minor differences
8. Tented Arch patterns are steeper
than general arch patterns
General Arch Tented Arch
9. Double Loop Patterns look very
different from left or right loops
and have 2 deltas
Technically this is a double loop whorl
10. Central Loops/Pocket Loops look similar to
whorl patterns but obviously have a loop
from the left or right
Right Pocket Loop Left Pocket Loop
These are technically Left or Right
Central Pocket Loop Whorls
11. Accidental patterns look like an
Arch pattern and a loop pattern
mixed together. It is also known as
a mixed figure
If a pattern does
contain more than 2
delta's it will always be
an accidental whorl
pattern.
12. Assignment
Get a piece of white paper and put all the prints from
each hand on the paper.
Above each print you need to label the type of print that
each finger is.
For your right hand, find and label three points (fork,
delta, etc.) within each fingerprint
