The correct option is A A and R both are correct. R is explanation of A
DNA fingerprint is the unique DNA pattern of each individual. It is the same for every cell, tissue and organ of an individual. DNA fingerprinting is a method used to identify an individual on the basis of unique patterns of its DNA. It is used in the diagnosis of inherited disorders like cystic fibrosis, Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease, Sickle cell anemia.
Thus, the correct answer is C.
