Best Answer

People have 23 pairs of chromosomes. Parts of chromosomes are exchanged in fertilization. It is possible to take the mothers chromosomes and separate them. It is then possible to take babies chromosomes and separate them. One of each pair from the mother will line up with parts of each of the baby's two sets from top to bottom. You will look down a little on the left side of baby's number of one and that will match the mother's then the match will jump over to the right side.

A daughter will recieve half of her chromosomes (DNA) from her mother.

The mitochondrial DNA is carried on the maternal line - which means that the DNA found in the daughter's mitochondria should be identical to that of her mother.

Compare and contrast between DNA and RNA with their names and functions?

DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is the blueprint or design of every organism, except a virus. It is usually found in the center of the plant or animal cell, called the nucleus. RNA (ribonucleic acid) is the opposite of DNA, but it is typically found in viruses. That is the big compare and contrast between DNA and RNA.


How does DNA in a new cell compare to the old cell when it replicates?

Since replication is semi-conservative and DNA replicates before mitosis the DNA in the new and old cell ( if you wish to use that terminology, as both are daughter cells ) is composed of one new strand and one old template strand.


Difference in DNA between parent cell and daughter cell in meiosis?

Homologous chromosomes assort independently, so each gamete has a unique combination of alleles


How Can I Compare new double-stranded DNA models with an original DNA Model?

Please elaborate. If you mean how to compare the replicated DNA molecule with the original, there is no point because the replicated DNA molecule is an EXACT copy of the original.


Why is DNA replication called semi conservative?

DNA replication of one helix of DNA results in two identical helices. If the original DNA helix is calledthe "parental" DNA, the two resulting helices can be called "daughter" helices. Each of these two daughter helices is a nearly exact copy of the parental helix (it is not 100% the same due to mutations).DNA creates "daughters" by using the parental strands of DNA as a template or guide. Each newly synthesized strand of DNA (daughter strand) is made by the addition of a nucleotide that is complementary to the parent strand of DNA. In this way, DNA replication is semi-conservative, meaning that one parent strand is always passed on to the daughter helix of DNA.

Does the mother cell have the same DNA as the daughter cells at the end of mitosis?

Of course they do. Mitosis is asexual cell division in which the daughter cells are identical to mother cell in all aspects including DNA.


What is the relative amounts of DNA in parent and daughter cells in mitosis?

The relative amounts of DNA in mother and daughter cells in mitosis are identical, as long as no chromosomal mutations occurred.


Why are there differences between the DNA charts for the mother and the child?

There are there differences between the DNA charts for the mother and the child because the child only shares one half of the mother's DNA. The other half of the child's DNA comes from the father.


Do daughter cells have DNA?

Yes, daughter cells have DNA. During cell division, the DNA in the parent cell is replicated and then evenly distributed between the two daughter cells. This allows each daughter cell to have a complete set of DNA for normal cellular functions and genetic information.


How do daughter cells at the end of mitosis compare to parent cells at the beginning?

The daughter cells have the same # of chromosomes & the same amount of DNA


What is the difference in DNA between parent cells and daughter cells in meiosis?

Parent cells are diploids, and daughter cells are haploids. Therefore, the daughter cells have half of the the number of chromosomes as the parent cells. (chromosomes are DNA)


How can you get a DNA test between your daughter and her father?

Get hold of their toothbrushes, send them in for testing.


Is it possible to test for maternity between two sisters or can their DNA be the same?

I think this is related... No two people on earth can have the same DNA (genetics) so they wont be the same although they will be simalar though it is possiable to distinguish brother from sister, mother from daughter etc.


How can you tell the mother of a child?

Compare the woman's identification with the information on the birth certificate. DNA testing would confirm this, also.


How do you found out if someone is your full sibling?

You could get a DNA test of your mother and father and compare it to your sibling to see if they are also his/her parents.
