Unit 5: Hair
![Page 2: Unit 5: Hair. Hair is the most frequently found piece of trace evidence. Hair is usually Class evidence unless : DNA in root is found = individual Sometimes](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfde1a28abf838cb21d8/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Hair is the most frequently found piece of trace evidence.
Hair is usually Class evidence unless:DNA in root is found = individual Sometimes mtDNA testing can be done (still class evidence but more narrowed)
Objective: SWBAT identify forensic evidence found in hair samples.
![Page 3: Unit 5: Hair. Hair is the most frequently found piece of trace evidence. Hair is usually Class evidence unless : DNA in root is found = individual Sometimes](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfde1a28abf838cb21d8/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
From hair one can determine:
Human vs animal?
Race (sometimes)
Location of hair on body (head, leg...)
Was hair was forcibly removed ?
Was hair treated with chemicals?
Were drugs/ toxins ingested?
Individualized if root is present (DNA)
Things hair can’t determine:• Age (except infant hair)• Gender (unless DNA in root)
Objective: SWBAT identify forensic evidence found in hair samples.

Hair is composed of three principal parts (sketch in your notes):
Cuticle
Cortex Medulla
Objective: SWBAT identify forensic evidence found in hair samples.

The cuticle is the outside covering made of overlapping scales.
Scales point down towards tip (older part) of hair.
