Solution

Variable Number Tandem Repeats are arranged in the form of short nucleotide sequences. They are present at a specific location on DNA. They are variable from person to person but are inherited from one generation to another. They occur in DNA when one or more nucleotides are repeated and this repetition is adjacent to each other.
