Only the egg. And that egg went in a different mother, and was inseminated by a different father. I'm not a biologist but I feel like the mother who bore the baby also contributed some amount of DNA. It's like when someone gets a heart or liver transplant, they often change their personality a bit. I read about a guy who got a heart transplant from a guy who died rock climbing, and suddenly got big into fitness, art and his taste in music changed.
Actually, no, the bio soster shares the same biological father. This was an embryo adoption, not IVF
Ohhhh ok, my bad. I must've misread some of that after being grossed out by the whole religious bullshit being a part of it.
