And then put the nucleus into a receptor cell, that will accept the DNA as it’s own. Sperm cells and egg cells do not have a full, living set of DNA. They have a half set of DNA kept in hibernation.

Semen is collected and placed in a liquefaction cup, which has enzymes that speed up the natural liquefaction process. One blue line appears on the strip if you have fewer than 20 million sperm cells per millilitre, and two blue lines appear if you have more than 20 million sperm cells per millilitre. read more
