Conclusion :
Today in science we were learning about forensic so fingerprints we got a balloon and we had to put our index finger on the ink pad then put it on the balloon but we can't blow the balloon up until we put our fingerprint on it cause when we blow it up our fingerprint will get bigger so we could see the print.
