Almost every cell has nuclear DNA.
The exception is mature red blood cells (erythrocytes), which extrude their nucleus during development. Without a nucleus, they cannot live long; the average life of a red cell is 120 days.
In addition, all cells contain mitochondria, and these contain mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), with 37 genes.

Where is the DNA in the human body?
DNA in the human body is located in the nucleus of each and every cell in the human body.
Is DNA primarily found in sexual reproduction cells?
DNA is present in every cell our body. DNA is present in somatic cells as well as reproductive cells (gametes). DNA is responsible for the genetic inheritance, passed along from one generation to another.
Where in a cell would you find DNA?
DNA can be found inside the nucleus of every cell, except for red blood cells. Small amounts of DNA can also be found in mitochondria.
If every somatic body cell in your body has the same DNA then why doesn't every cell do the exact same job?
The reason every cell does different things despite having the exact same DNA is that the DNA isn't responsible for deciding what happens, only translating what occurs. Messenger RNA gets the code from the DNA, and that's what determines what proteins get produced in each cell.
Is the amount of DNA in a human body cell the same as the amount of DNA in a human egg cell?
No. The amount of DNA in human sperm cells is half of the amount found in body cells.
Where are genes found within the body?
In the DNA in every cell.
Can you get DNA from someones Dandruff?
DNA is found in every cell in the body, so yes.
In the human body where is DNA found?
DNA is found in every cell througout the body, with the cells, the genetic information is contained within the nucleus of each cell
What type of cells is DNA found in?
Chromosomes.
Do cell membrane contain DNA synthesis?
No, a cell wall is found in a plant cell and it does not contain dexoxyribonucleic acid
Where is DNA found in humans?
DNA is found in the nucleus of every cell.
What part of the body are nucleic acids found?
In DNA, within the nucleus of each and every cell.
Where does DNA function?
DNA functions in every cell of the human body, and in every cell of every living thing on the earth.
Where is DNA found in the cell and what is its code for?
DNA is found inside the nucleus in every cell and contains all of the information required to create your body as well as perform any/all function(s).
What is a cell that DNA is not found in?
DNA is found in every cell in every organism, even diseased cells.
Where in the body cell is DNA found?
In the nucleus!
Is DNA stored in one specific cell?
Every single cell in an animals body has DNA in it.
