Dinobryon is a species of protozoa that reproduce asexually. How can this
asexual reproduction be harmful to the species?

Asexual reproduction is speedy, but it doesn’t provide for genetic variation. When a cell reproduces asexually, it makes an exact copy of itself. This doesn’t allow for much selective alleles because all alleles are the same, and it doesn’t allow for too much evolution because of this selfsame reason. No phenotypes are more or less fit because they’re all the same.

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.'
