Every human being shares 99.9% of their DNA with the rest of humans, and 0.1% of DNA is unique to each person. The 0.01% unique diversity makes a DNA test very informative on a variety of relationships and health conditions.
There are many reasons why DNA tests are taken. While some people take the test to confirm their heritage, others take it to learn more about their ancestors and origin. Most people however take DNA tests to confirm parentage that a parent and child are 99.99% related, 0% not related, or calculate the probability that a child and an alleged relative are biologically related or not.
Everyone above the age of sixteen can buy DNA tests which could be peace of mind, legal or immigration DNA testing. Buccal swap or blood samples are used in the At-home DNA testing kit, from which DNA is obtained. This is then analyzed, sequenced in the lab, and compared with samples from alleged relatives at different locations where human DNA codes are often different.
