A shopping mall wanted to determine whether the more expensive tough stuff floor wax was better than the cheaper steel seal floor wax at protecting its floor tiles against scratches. One liter of each brand of floor wax was applied to test sections of the main hall of the mall. The test sections were all the same size and were covered with the same kind of tiles.

dna fingerprinting is defined as a process that determines the dna characteristics of an individual. these dna characteristics are unique among individuals as their fingerprints, so it is known as dna fingerprinting.

steps of dna fingerprinting includes extraction of dna from sample, amplification of dna, restriction digestion of amplified dna, and then analysis of dna by gel electrophoresis, respectively.

thus, the next step performed by the scientist is 'to cut the amplified dna (obtained by polymerase chain reaction) by restriction enzymes that cleave the dna into fragments and their analysis.'
