A banana would.
In an experiment I completed just a few days ago. More than a whole gram of DNA was able to be extracted from the Banana compared to a strawberry

How could you determine what percentage of a strawberry's mass is DNA?
Divide the weight of the strawberry's DNA by the strawberry itself.
Why is strawberry DNA easier to extract then human DNA?
Same nucleic acids, same coding sequences, though many of those sequences are quite variant, same coding for protein products and many coding regions showing the taxonomic linkage, though very far apart, of these two eukaryotic organisms.
Why is strawberry DNA easier to extract?
It is a polyploid fruit i.e. it has several sets of chromosome complements as a result of scientific intervention. This results in a high DNA content. Also, the pulp is easily broken down meaning the cell walls and membranes can be more readily disrupted thereby releasing more genetic material.
How do the enzymes pectinase and cellulase aid in the extraction of DNA from strawberries?
In a strawberry to extract the DNA it is required to break down the cell membrane (both the membrane protecting the cell as well as the membrane protecting the nucleus) and pectinase and cellulase in strawberries are enzymes that are break down these membrane...at least in a strawberry.
For my project i have to extract DNA from an onion and see if the DNA can survive when separated from other cell components how do i know if the DNA survived or not?
I'm not too sure what you mean by survive, as this is a very interesting term you are using to refer to the nature of DNA. DNA by itself cannot survive, per se, as it is not living by itself, it does not reproduce nor intake food nor produce young by itself. However, if you mean see if the DNA has been damaged by the extraction process, there is no easy way to find out completely, but very likely you have damaged it to some extent by removing it. The extent to which you have damaged it will vary, but generally, the darker the cluster, the more intact your sample. You must compare the darkness with the darkness seen in an onion cell going into prophase of cell division as this is the point where DNA is exposed and unravelled.
What has more DNA strawberry or a kiwi?
a strawberry
Why do strawberry have more DNA than humans?
because they have eight copies of DNA
What does the DNA of a onion do for the onion?
In every plant, animal or the other microorganisms, you have got the complete story or the characters of that individual written in the DNA. The onion is an onion because of the DNA of the onion. Much like the tomato is a tomato because of the DNA of the tomato.
How could you determine what percentage of a strawberry's mass is DNA?
Divide the weight of the strawberry's DNA by the strawberry itself.
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 .
When does an onion taste like a strawberry?
when you have a real imagination.
What is the hypothesis for strawberry DNA project?
what is it
Can you extract DNA from an onion?
si
Why onion is suitable for DNA extraction?
Onion cells do not have a lot of cellulose fibers.
Do strawberries contain DNA?
Yes. A strawberry is an organism; thus, it contains DNA.
What are organisms that reproduce asexually?
strawberry,onion,potatoes,worm,sponges,ameoba
What are Asexual reproducing organisms?
strawberry,onion,potatoes,worm,sponges,ameoba
