Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes, and just over 3 billion base pairs. Each cell in the human body has about 2m of DNA (if it were stretched out). This means that an average human's DNA would be 2 * 1011 km long!
This length is 500,000 times the distance to the moon (4 * 105 km).

What are the key differences between bacterial DNA and human DNA?
Bacterial DNA is typically circular and found in a single chromosome, while human DNA is linear and organized into multiple chromosomes. Bacterial DNA is also smaller and contains fewer genes compared to human DNA. Additionally, bacterial DNA lacks introns, which are non-coding regions found in human DNA.
How much DNA is in the human body?
Well most of the body contains DNA but nobody knows really how but DNA you have in your body.
Where can DNA be found other than the nucleus?
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is the 'language' that genes are 'written in'. The DNA in the nucleus composes the genome (complete set of genes) of the organism to which the cell belongs. Thus the human genome is the genome of the DNA within the nucleus of human cells. But DNA, in plants and other photosynthetic eukaryotes, is found composing a completely different genome within the chloroplasts. And in most eukaryotes including animals, plants and fungi, their is also a separate mitochondrial genome composed from DNA in the mitochondria. The theory of endosymbiosis explains the presence of DNA in mitochondria and chloroplasts.
How much DNA is present in the human body?
The human body contains about 6 feet of DNA, which is tightly packed into the nucleus of each cell.
Where is the DNA in the human body?
DNA is found within the cell nucleus of human cells. It is also present in small organelles called mitochondria, which are known as the powerhouse of the cell. DNA carries the genetic instructions that determine an individual's traits and characteristics.
Is it possible for human DNA to be found in hotdogs?
No, it is not possible for human DNA to be found in hotdogs as they are made from animal meat, not human tissue.

DNA is found in the nucleus in people yes or no?
Yes, DNA is found in the nucleus of a human. Learned it in Science just a few weeks ago.
Do you extract human DNA the same as animal DNA?
Yes. The DNA is found in the nucleus of every cell. It's simply a case of extracting the DNA from the cell.
How much DNA can a human cell hold?
as much as your mom gives you

Where is extrachromasomal DNA is found?
in chloroplast and mitocondria
What are 2 nucleic acids found in the human body?
There are two: DNA and RNA.

Can Human DNA be positively identified as human without other information?
Yes. Human DNA is human DNA.
