0 tiger_lily111 Posted December 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 (edited) Mitochondrial Eve An unbroken mitochondrial (mt) DNA line that can *theoretically* be traced back to this point/person. (She began the mtDNA line of all present-day humans.) mtDNA is passed on matrilineally - Mitochondrial Eve's mtDNA line has not ended between her & the peoples of the present-day. Most common matrilineal ancestor of present-day humans, matrilineal phylogenetic tree. Each successive generation of human females continues the mtDNA line. (Each generation is a new end of the line ... if the human race should disappear, that is.) Thanks to all those who played along & stuck with! Enjoy your weekend!

0 Guest Posted December 10, 2010 Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 (edited) Mitochondrial Eve? I dismissed this idea because Mitochondria and Eve were ruled out, but somehow once I see it on paper it looks better...if this is the answer ...arrrghhh If it is the answer, good answer DD {edit didn't see there was a page 9... Well Done DD!!!} Edited December 10, 2010 by maurice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question
tiger_lily111
You are the end, I am the beginning
This mother's line is yet unending
From one, diverging, came all
Common as one, my branches wide-spread
I am the beginning, you are the end
