Any cells can be used as you will find DNA in almost all of them (a few exceptions are red blood cells, platelets, etc.) but even where one specific cell in a tissue has no DNA many adjacent cells in the sample will have DNA.

Why would it be better to look at living cells than at dead cells?
Because you can get more information using living cells cause there the real thing. Using dead cells wouldn't work cause the cell is dead and it doesnt have the same things it had when it was alive. It is generally considered better to look at living cells than dead cells for two reasons. Firstly, when a cell is living, you can observe the cellular processes as they happen. Secondly, over time, parts of dead cells deteriorate, akin to a fruit rotting.
All living cells would test positive for amino acids?
TRUE
Why would it be better to look at living cells than an dead cell?
It would be better to look at living cells instead of dead cells, because living cells give you information about what you're researching, knowing you can see their movements and living organelles, which tell you absolutely nothing when they're dead.
Why is it difficult to extract DNA from a cell fat tissue?
DNA isn't as easily freed from the cells with addition to dish detergent as it would be in wheat germ.

Who was the first to discover that all animals are made of cells?
The first person to determine that all living living things are made of cells was Theodor Schwan, a German scientist who concluded this by studying animals. Schwan knew that all plants are made of cells from previous scientist, Schleiden.
