Mitochondrial DNA

Mitochondrial DNA

Do you know about mitochondrial DNA? It is a small portion of DNA present in the mitochondria of your cells that you only get from your mom! And she only got from her mom. And she only got from her mom! And so on! That means that your maternal lineage can be traced back thousands and thousands of years through your Moms DNA! How cool! Happy Mother's Day!!

So that means the maternal lineage of my family can be traced down by my mitochondrial DNA
