No. First cousin share 1/8 of your variable genes and only 1/32 with second cousins. With third cousins you share only 1/128.

How much DNA would you share with a first cousin?

You would share approximately 12.5% of your DNA with a first cousin. This is because you share a pair of grandparents with your first cousin, resulting in genetic similarities but less than with a sibling.


Can first cousins have same DNA if child is tested with one cousin and test comes back 99.60 is it possible that the other cousin can test higher than that or be more accurate than 99.60?

Not very likely the other will test as high because the two cosins are from two different parents with two totally different DNAs. Only one that might come close to matching a test is an identical twin. I wold say cousin number 1 is the parent!


What is relationship between recombination frequency and genetic distance?

Recombination frequency is a measure of the likelihood of two genes being inherited together during reproduction. Genetic distance is the physical measure of the separation between two genes in a genome. There is a direct relationship between recombination frequency and genetic distance - as the genetic distance between two genes increases, the likelihood of recombination events between them also increases.


Will your kid be normal if you have it with your cousin?

If you have a child with your first cousin, you have a very small chance of the child having a genetic disorder, a few percent at most unless you are a member of an ethnic group that already has a genetic disease in its genome. If you have a child with a more distant cousin, the chances are even less.

Yes of course you do because you will share common ancestors such as great grandparents. All humans have a genetic relationship with each other, but the more closely you are related the more genetic features you will share. Being cousins twice removed is not close enough to prevent a sexual relationship (in law) if that's what's on your mind.


Is your first cousin twice removed a distant or close cousin accoording to genetics?

You share one of your grandparents with your first cousin, twice removed. From the point of view of your first cousin twice removed, the ancestor shared with you is his or her great great grandparent. Since you have 4 grandparents, you have received roughly 1/4 of your genetic heritage from each one. Since your cousin twice removed has 16 great great grandparents, he or she has received 1/16th of his genetic heritage from the one she shares with you. So almost 94% of your twice removed cousin's genetic heritage is from ancestors not related to you. And 75% of your genetic heritage is from ancestors not related to your twice removed cousin. This is a relatively distant relationship, although many others are even more distantly related than that.


Are you and your first cousin twice removed close or distant cousins?

Basically First cousins mean you have the same grandparents, but twice removed means there's TWO generations between you. So they are much older or much younger than you. see related links. Whether that is a close or distant cousin relationship is a matter of opinion and circumstance.
