Why Are The Fingerprints Of A Person Different From Others?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Every person's fingerprints are different from every other person's fingerprints. Researchers who have studied the fingerprints claim that the wide variety of fingerprints is possibly because of the mechanics of the growth of tissues in the human body.

    The formation of the fingerprints is presumed to be a result of the buckling that takes place on the surface of the skin when it is growing. The bifurcation of the surface enjoys the advantage of infinite multiplication.

    The bifurcation of the surface is also believed to be one of the reasons why the fingerprints of each person differ from those of others. The morphogenesis of the tissues with the buckling mechanism of the surface and the theory of growth underlie this mechanism. Genetics is presumed to play a minor role in one's fingerprints.
