We do not have any DNA from non avian dinosaurs. It has been far too long for DNA to still be preserved.

However, we do know many features of chickens and theropod dinosaurs were the same. Just a few of these include:

  • The ability to fold the forelimbs.
  • Feathers
  • Warm bloodedness (Endothermy)
  • Sternum
  • Honeycomb structured bones
  • The same number of toes were on both non avian theropods and birds.

Could you find d.n.a from dinosaurs?

The non avian dinosaur fossils are so old that no DNA is left. Therefor, you can't find the DNA from non avian dinosaurs. However, birds, which are considered dinosaurs, exist today and it isn't hard to get bird DNA.

What two DNA would have the same percentage?

DNA strands with equal percentage of guanine and cytosine (GC content) will have similar melting temperatures and will be more closely related. This means that DNA sequences with the same GC content will have similar stability and more closely matched hybridization properties.


Are parakeets related to dinosaurs?

It's looking as though they did. The whole class of Aves (birds) seems to owe its existence to dinosaur parents -- although these would most likely have been rather unassumming smallish dinosaurs, not T. rex or Apatosaurus. Although canaries and parrots are certainly birds, DNA studies have found the most dinosaur-like creatures alive today are -- chickens.


What percentage of your DNA is the same as your parents?

You share approximately 50% of your DNA with each of your biological parents. This is because you inherit half of your DNA from your mother and half from your father during the process of genetic inheritance.

Why would a DNA molecule have the same percentage of guanine and cytosine in it?

A DNA molecule may have the same percentage of guanine and cytosine because they bond together through three hydrogen bonds, forming a stable base pair. This complementary pairing ensures that the total percentage of guanine always equals the total percentage of cytosine in a DNA molecule, known as Chargaff's rule.


Where can you find dinosaurs DNA?

"There is very little DNA left in fossils, that are more than 100,000 years old", said Michael Hofreiter, a geneticist at the university of York in UK. "It is fragmented and there is a lot of contamination from other organisms, including bacteria, fungi and usually humans."


How do scientists get info about dinosaures?

Scientists get information about dinosaurs from fossils and they are able to trace DNA and find out how dinosaurs looked, ate, hunted and lived.
