Are toe prints unique like fingerprints?

#fingerprints #toeprints Are toe prints unique, like fingerprints? Have you ever seen a child who looked just like his or her father when the latter was younger? We can often tell that two people are related because of their several similar physical traits, such as facial features or hair color. This is because children receive half of their DNA from each parent. But what about something small, such as fingerprints, are they an inherited trait? The why of fingerprints is just as slippery as the how! Your actual fingerprints develop while you’re still a fetus in your mother’s uterus. The pressure on the fingertips, movement within the womb and thickness of the amniotic fluid surrounding the baby all affect the patterns that form. Fingerprints are used to identify people because each persons are unique. Your fingers, palms, toes, and foot soles are all covered with friction ridges arrayed in a unique and relatively permanent pattern. Friction ridges on your hands and feet are so named because scientists long thought they improved grip. Inherited genes will also dictate the pattern of the fingerprints but even identical twins have different prints due to the varying environmental exposure in the womb. Now, are toe prints unique, like fingerprints? Yes they are. The whorls and ridges develop uniquely in each person and are not genetically determined. There are a few famous cases in which criminals have been caught by using toe prints. The first was at a Scottish bakery in 1952 when a safe-cracker was identified by the footprints he left on the flour-dusted floor. Though it was the only evidence against the criminal, the jury convicted him within 15 minutes.
