98% percent of EVERYONES DNA is shared. you share 98% with your mom, teacher, friend, cousin, it really doesn't matter. but 98% is shared amongst everyone.
The above answer is partially correct but only very generally speaking. We also share close to 98% of our DNA with chimps. The real differences come when scientists examine the additions and deletions common to genetic subsets of humans. For example when additions and deletions found in chimp DNA is accounted for the similarity is really closer to 95%. Some researchers have found that there is greater than 1% difference in subsets of humans, which is potentially huge.

How similar is human and cabbage DNA?
While plants and humans are very different, they do have quite a bit of DNA similarities. Humans share approximately 40-50% of DNA with cabbage. Humans share over 60% of DNA with insects, and 98% with chimps.
How much DNA does a human share with a potato?
Humans share very little with a potato. Chromosomes are a collection of DNA woven around protein. A chromosome may contain as many as 100,000 to billions of nucleotides in one chain. Chimpanzee and humans share a very SIMILAR DNA pattern, where as a potato and a human being don't. So although they both have 48 chromosomes, their DNA STUCTURE is vastly different.
Genes make up about percent of DNA?
There has been a lot of research through the Human Genome Project to determine this. 1.5 percent of DNA in the body is made of Genes.
How does our DNA code for proteins?
The human DNA codes for proteins through transcription and replication of the genes. Only about 2 percent of the DNA is used for coding.
What percent of each nitrogen base occurs in human liver cell DNA?
dude I'm high
Similarites of a human and orangutan?
share 96.4% of human DNA
What is the human race's purpose?
Proliferation of DNA

You share 99.8 percent of your DNA with Ronald Reagan how much of your DNA do you share with bonzo his chimp co-star?
98.40%
What percent of DNA do humans share with strawberries?
60-80%
How close are human to primate?
primates share about 95% of our DNA
Are ape and human DNA the same?
Human and ape DNA are remarkably similar. In fact chimpanzees are so closely related to us (around 98-99 percent DNA relatedness) that many scientists are suggesting that the genus Panshould be scrapped and moved to the Homo genus.
What percent of chimpanzees DNA matches your own?
Human beings and chimpanzees have 98% of their DNA in common.
What percent of human and pig Dna is similar?
they are 95% to 90% DNA like us. we are very similar to them.
Should Chimpanzees have Human Rights as they have 95 percent of Human DNA?
No. Although chimps are closely related they are not human.
Do you share DNA with your dad's cousin twice removed?
You share some DNA with everyone to whom you are related. Since you have a common ancestor with your father's cousin twice removed, you are related and share DNA. More broadly, every human being has large amounts of DNA that are shared with every other human being. That is what makes us humans, as distinct from chimpanzees, orangutans, gorillas or mice.
What percentage of DNA do humans and reptiles share?
More than 98%, according to Jonathan Marks Department of Anthropology University of California, Berkeley
