> Strawberry DNA is made up of 8 sets of chromosomes, compared to human DNA which only has 2 [sets]. Practically this means that a strawberry [cell] contains 4 times more DNA than [a cell of] a person or most other living things.
Hold the heck up, even after steel-manning this with the bracketed additions it's still nonsense: The amount of DNA per set is not the same!
Let's see... if human cells have 3,000 million base pairs* with 2 copies, and a (cultivated) strawberry cell has 830 million base pairs with 8 copies... The strawberry is only slightly ahead, nowhere near "four times".
