Is the DNA in people's cheek cells as the same as the DNA in other cells?
Yes. Within a single person, all of the somatic cells have the same nuclear genomic DNA; it does not matter if you compare DNA from a cheek cell to a liver cell.
How do you get DNA from your parent?
Through male and female gametes
Do strawberry and human have the same DNA?
There would be more DNA in a strawberry because strawberries are octoploids, they have 8 copies of genes rather than 2 copies found in a cheek cells .
How are cheek-swab DNA tests and blood-drawn DNA tests similar?
They both take a DNA sample
Can a child have DNA from two men?
A child is unable to have DNA from two men. This is because there must be two gametes that are able to sexually reproduce.

When gametes combine their DNA its called?
fertilization.

What is the definition of a haploid cell?
A haploid cell is a cell which contains one set of DNA. Most cells have 2 full sets of DNA. Gametes (found in sex cells: sperm and egg cells) are gametes. It is important that they have only one set of DNA because, when the egg is fertilised, the two gametes fuse together to make a zygote with the full 2 sets of DNA.
How many chromosomes are at the end of meiosis II?
A diploid organism have: 2n chromosome after meiosis 1, the gametes would still have 2n as DNA replication occured Meiosis 1 can be assumed to be the same process as Mitosis. after meiosis 2, the gametes would have n (1/2 of 2n), as the second meiosis would not include any form of DNA replication.
Does a cheek cell contain the same chromosomes as a liver cell?
Yes. In an individual, almost all cells contain DNA (Red Blood Cells do not). That DNA is tightly wound like you would twist a drawstring, and kept tightly coiled as chromosomes. Since chromosomes can be found in a cheek cell, a liver cell (hepatocyte), and almost all other cells, they all contain the same chromosomes, which inevitably have the same genes. What makes cheek cells different from liver cells is which genes are turned on and off. Cheek cells have different genes turned on compared to liver cells.
Meiosis allows DNA to be divided into gametes?
Yes. Meiosis means ' to halve. '
When molecular geneticists take a blood sample or a cheek swab what are they trying to obtain?
The inside cells of the cheek are living cells. The cheek cells outside are dead and filled with keratin. These living cells have a nucleus which contains DNA. This is a very easy way to gather DNA samples and it is not invasive.
What is the process of rewriting a segment of the DNA molecule into an RNA message?
my left cheek
Can a child have DNA from two men?
A child is unable to have DNA from two men. This is because there must be two gametes that are able to sexually reproduce.
