1.Give at least 3 most effective tools used in forensic science.

1.facial constructions a method used in the forensic field when a crime involves unidentified
remains.and it is also used by many forensic labs to determine the appearance of victims who are too
damaged or whose bodies are decomposing to make a visual identification.

2.DNA sequencing

DNA is used to identify both criminals and victims by using trace evidence such as skin or hair.DNA
sequencing determines the order of the four chemical blocks(called bases)that make up the DNA
molecule.

3.High-powered microscope

Microscopy is a essential to the forensic science with virtually all trace evidence requiring analysis using
polarised light microscopy,scanning electron microscopy,X-ray spectroscopy.

-with the help of high powered microscopes tiny pieces of evidence can be viewed more clearly and be
more easily identified.

2.this are the evidence that need a careful scientific investigation to look for the perpetrator.

*Video evidence-while investigators are able to piece together events that happens at crime scenes
from any physical and DNA evidence,video evidence allows investigator to review what actually took
place.Surveillance cameras are set up in great deal of public places but with improvement in cellphones
and handheld devices more people have the opportunity to take clear quality,photography and videos
to document different situation.

3.what are the factors or agents in reporting a forensic scientific report.

-to recognize and preserve physical evidence that will yield reliable information to avoid in the
investigation.

4.what are the attitude of a forensics scientist to his efficiency and effective to establish the findings in
the court.

-if aims to identify when where and hiw forensics science can add value to criminal investigation,court
trials and justice while ensuring the efficient use of available resources and they need also to
demonstrate logical acumen in applying the scientific method and they need to explain their
application of science to the problem at hand clearly.

5.if you tasked to investigate the vehicular accident what evidences are you looking for why?

For me the skid marks because it is another way that investigators can determine how fast the vehicles
were traveling when the skid distance the drag factor due to road surface friction and the braking
efficiency are determined the minimum speed of a car as it started skidding can be found.The
appearance of the skid mark also tells investigators wether a car was braking,accelerating,or sliding
therefore skid marks can indicate who might be at fault for driving recklessly.
