Is the DNA in people's cheek cells as the same as the DNA in other cells?

Yes. Within a single person, all of the somatic cells have the same nuclear genomic DNA; it does not matter if you compare DNA from a cheek cell to a liver cell.


When gametes combine their DNA its called?

fertilization.


How do you get DNA from your parent?

Through male and female gametes


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 .


What is the definition of a haploid cell?

A haploid cell is a cell which contains one set of DNA. Most cells have 2 full sets of DNA. Gametes (found in sex cells: sperm and egg cells) are gametes. It is important that they have only one set of DNA because, when the egg is fertilised, the two gametes fuse together to make a zygote with the full 2 sets of DNA.


Does a cheek cell contain the same chromosomes as a liver cell?

Yes. In an individual, almost all cells contain DNA (Red Blood Cells do not). That DNA is tightly wound like you would twist a drawstring, and kept tightly coiled as chromosomes. Since chromosomes can be found in a cheek cell, a liver cell (hepatocyte), and almost all other cells, they all contain the same chromosomes, which inevitably have the same genes. What makes cheek cells different from liver cells is which genes are turned on and off. Cheek cells have different genes turned on compared to liver cells.


Can genes be located in cheek cells?

Yes the gene would be found within the DNA in the cheek cell, however, the gene will only be expressed in the stomach and so the copy of the gene found in the cheek cell will not be functional


Meiosis allows DNA to be divided into gametes?

Yes. Meiosis means ' to halve. '


Do females produce gametes?

Yes! bacteria can produce DNA as it also have genetic material in the form of DNA (plasmids) so as many time bacterial cell divide it produce DNA and intrestingly bacteria are used in many biotechnical process in which forigen DNA is incooperated in bacterial DNA for the production which then is isolated from the bacterial DNA.


When molecular geneticists take a blood sample or a cheek swab what are they trying to obtain?

The inside cells of the cheek are living cells. The cheek cells outside are dead and filled with keratin. These living cells have a nucleus which contains DNA. This is a very easy way to gather DNA samples and it is not invasive.


Are animal cheek cells the same shape as human cheek cells?

no


How are cheek-swab DNA tests and blood-drawn DNA tests similar?

Both cheek-swab DNA tests and blood-drawn DNA tests are methods used to obtain a sample of DNA for genetic testing. They both provide genetic information that can be used for various purposes such as ancestry testing and health risk assessments. Cheek-swab tests are non-invasive and can be done at home, while blood-drawn tests require a visit to a healthcare provider for sample collection.
