Wait. Please explain. How is DNA inside me, a verifiable human, not human?
There's a LOT of e. coli up your ass.
Put more delicately, you are a great big multicellular eukaryote, each of your cells has (or had, in the case of red blood cells) an inner chamber called the nucleus, and you're full of mitochondria and other organelles. Your body is covered and filled with other organisms, many of them simple, tiny little single cell prokaryotes which make a living helping their gigantic, complicated host function. Like all the bacteria in your intestines that help you digest food. Their cells outnumber yours by a wide margin.
It's DNA from bacteria that live inside you.
Bacteria technically live in the tube of "outside" on your inside. Digestive system is just one hole all the way through the body that your body interacts with just like the air in the lungs.
Your poop is on the outside of your body
