It providesa set of definitions used to exchange biometric data in a standardized manner. Itforms the basis for Type-99 records.complete friction ridge exemplarsA set of exemplar images of all finger and palm friction skin for an individual.Complete friction ridge exemplars include full palmprint images, as well as rolledfingerprints, plain fingerprints, entire joint images, and rolled tips for all fingers.See major case prints.distal segmentThe segment of a finger or thumb farthest from the palm.DNAAcronym for Deoxyribonucleic Acid. This is a chemical that forms a double helixthat is unique to all but identical siblings.•74 Also see: E.
