What is the only cell in humans that does not have DNA?
The only cell in humans that does not have DNA is the red blood cell.
What is the source of DNA in blood?
DNA in blood comes from white blood cells, which contain the person's genetic information. When blood is collected for testing or analysis, the DNA can be extracted from these cells to study and identify specific genetic markers or sequences.
Where in a cell would you find DNA?
DNA can be found inside the nucleus of every cell, except for red blood cells. Small amounts of DNA can also be found in mitochondria.
Where would you find a cell's DNA in a cell?
A cell's DNA is typically found in the nucleus of the cell, organized into structures called chromosomes. Some cells, like red blood cells, may not have a nucleus, in which case the DNA is found in the cell's cytoplasm.
What percent of the cell's volume does DNA take up?
This cannot be answered without reference to cell type etc. A human red blood cell has no DNA! A gamete cell has 1/2 quantity, a cell prior to cell division has double, a polyploid plant cell has many times more DNA than normal.
What is unique about the red blood cell in terms of the nucleas and DNA?
A mature red blood cell does not have a nucleus or DNA.
What is the only cell in humans that does not have DNA?
The only cell in humans that does not have DNA is the red blood cell.
Which part of a blood cell is used for DNA profiling?
The DNA in the nucleus, although this would need to be a white blood cell as red blood cells have no nucleus, instead using the space to store oxygen.
Where is DNA founf in a cell?
blood

Would you expect to get a positive DNA test in a mature red blood cell?
No, mature red blood cells do not contain a nucleus or DNA. They lose their DNA as they mature to better accommodate their main function of carrying oxygen. Therefore, a DNA test on a mature red blood cell would be negative.
A human blood sample would be suitable to carry out a DNA test but a sample of red blood cell would not?
Exactly, because a red blood cell has no nucleus and therefore no DNA
How much DNA is in white blood cells?
There is as much DNA in white blood cells as any other cell. There is none in red blood cells.
Do any cells contain less or no DNA content?
Yes, there is one type of cell which does not contain DNA, and that is the red blood cell.
Is there a deoxyribonucleic acid DNA in every living cell?
No. An example would be the red blood cell (RBC). It has no nucleus, and therefore has no DNA.
Can DNA testing be carried out on red blood cells alone?
It depends on the organism you're talking about and what kind of DNA. A mammilial red cell does not have nucleus, so most DNA testing is impossible. However, it does have mitochondria, which contain their own DNA, and testing can be done on this.
What did the pus have in it that held the DNA?
DNA is contained in the cell nucleus, a d pus is made from White Blood Cells.
