Yes. The biological father has rights and he might want custody of the child. She can not allow the child to be adopted without his consent. The court can issue an order to have a DNA test administered.

No. If the biological father wants to assert parental rights he may file a petition with the court to order a paternity test taken. If presented with such an order the mother must comply or be held in contempt of court. A biological parent cannot be forced to relinquish parental rights it must be done voluntarily or said rights terminated by the court for reasons of abuse and/or neglect.
