Answer 1

In the study that the FBI did on examining the physical characteristics of hair the percentage of the matches that were not at all was around 10 percent.

Answer 2

Answer: 10%

Explanation:

Hair is a potential evidence which can be used to establish the linkage to the culprit or victim it belongs to by the DNA analysis of hair. For establishing the similarity about 10% cannot be matched this is due to some experimental errors as wells as quantity and quality of the hair strands that are to be compared.
