yes, all that data is extrapolated directly from DNA. It’s a huge amount of information. All the DNA in a single human cell is directly translated to about 750MiB. Now, add in the fact that genomic studies use biobanks, like the UK Biobank, which contains the genetic info of hundreds of thousands of people. The data we can extrapolate from DNA is absolutely massive.

We have 3/4 of a GB of data in every cell? I need to read more into this. Wish I’d bothered with biology at school. 😂
