Answer

There are several similarities between DNA profiling and DNA sequencing:

  • Both are specialized, precise molecular biology techniques
  • Both techniques are based on DNA
  • Both help to identify the nucleotide sequence of the genome
  • Both techniques use PCR and gel electrophoresis during their procedures
  • Both techniques have numerous applications in forensic science
  • Both can be applied in paternity testing
