Kinship analysis

Kinship analysis is a method used to determine relationships between individuals within a family or community by examining genetic markers or shared characteristics. It helps identify how closely related people are, such as parent, sibling, cousin, or more distant relatives. This analysis is valuable in fields like forensics, anthropology, and genealogy, providing insights into lineage, inheritance, or ancestry. By comparing specific genetic traits or DNA patterns, kinship analysis clarifies familial connections, assisting in legal cases, historical research, or understanding human migration and evolution.
