Solution

The correct option is C Jeffrey
DNA fingerprinting is the process of determining an individual's DNA characteristics, which are as unique as fingerprints. The first patent covering the modern process of DNA fingerprinting was filed by Dr. Alec Jeffrey Glassberg in 1983. DNA fingerprinting is a forensic technique in criminal investigations, comparing criminal suspect's profiles to DNA evidence so as to assess the likelihood of their involvement in the crime.
So, the correct answer is 'Alec Jeffrey'.
