Fingerprint Patterns and Bone Associations

The video tutorial explains the differences between radial and ulnar loop fingerprints, relating them to the radius and ulna bones in the forearm. It covers how to identify these loops on both the right and left hands, providing practical tips for students to apply this knowledge in assessments. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of understanding the orientation of the hand when analyzing fingerprints.

What are radial and ulnar loop fingerprints associated with?

• The two bones in the spine

• The two bones in the skull

• The two bones in the leg

• The two bones in the forearm

Which bone is located on the thumb side of the forearm?

• Radius

• Tibia

• Femur

• Ulna

What is the primary function of the radius bone?

• To rotate the hand

• To stabilize the knee

• To support the leg

• To protect the heart

How can you categorize fingerprints as radial or ulnar loops?

• By the color of the fingerprint

• By the size of the fingerprint

• By the hand they are on

• By the age of the person

On the right hand, if a loop enters and exits from the left side, what type of loop is it?

• Lateral loop

• Central loop

• Radial loop

• Ulnar loop

On the right hand, which side is associated with the ulna bone?

• Thumb side

• Pinky side

• Middle finger side

• Index finger side

On the left hand, if a loop enters and exits from the left side, what type of loop is it?

• Central loop

• Ulnar loop

• Lateral loop

• Radial loop

On the left hand, which side is associated with the radius bone?

• Pinky side

• Thumb side

• Middle finger side

• Ring finger side

What should you do if you have questions about radial and ulnar loops?

• Ignore them

• Email the teacher

• Ask a friend

• Search on social media

What is a common student behavior when identifying radial and ulnar loops?

• Drawing on the paper

• Using a calculator

• Slapping their hand on the paper

• Writing notes
