I did some research and i have come to know that, only WBC in the blood 
has DNA in it because its the only component that has nuclei. And it lives 
only for about 6-10 days. What happens to the DNA in that time inside a 
host body? **Whole blood transfer is still done in many countries of the 
world.**
