How can I track my father's ancestry through DNA testing if I am a girl?
anna if wouldn't tell father's specific ancestors are. if find brother or male cousin on father's side shares same male ancestors father take test. there surname projects , have put on project , see if has complete matches. type of testing not useful unless traditional family research documents/records.
gets y 1 person in each generation goes back. same true mitochondrial. no way represent father's overall ancestry. assign him haplogroup , show origin of nomadic ancestors going thousands of years in 1 line. family lines double each generation go back. instance father has 8 great great grandfathers. out of 8, 7 of them not included in results. @ way, father's y might scandinavian because 1 of vagabond vikings went china , produced children chinese girl. children of children married other chinese. father's overriding ancestry chinese y dna scandinavian.
estimated 1 out of 6 females y. don't have ovaries. have uterus. have small undeveloped testicles on inside. if changed diapers of xy female see nothing different if changed diapers of xx female. reason turn female phenotype totally insensitive testosterone. therefore in hormones estrogen. our family friends couple more of less helped raise us. called them aunt , uncle though close friends. told many years ago before knew dna reason did not have children found did not have uterus. when dna testing came out took tests , found out had y. described me on biology board softer, have more feminine features , larger in breast xx females. years ago man told me physician told him particular female entertainer has characteristics , has never had children, though today has been married on 40 years, fits profile. while have male sex chromosome more female in hormones xx females. tell friends females can have y tested.
using autosomal dna overall ancestral testing. autosomal not exact y & mitochondrial. not go in straight line unchanged. of dna , determines among other things such pigmentation, bone structure, facial features, etc. 50-50 both parents not 25% each of 4 grandparents. reason why inherited can biased between grandmother , grandfather on both sides of family because when parents passed on autosomal received parents randomly jumbled , went through process of recombination. how person inherits bias not how siblings inherited it. problem type of testing has been reported if person has autosomal tested more 1 company different results. no doubt reason why have match population samples have. don't have same population samples. 1 might not have or might deficient in population groups other 1 isn't , vice versa. there no haplogroups autosomal.
type of testing has been on hyped on tv. no doubt maury povich doesn't know enough ask questions clear guest come on show. if celebrities george lopez have mentioned had tests done other companies different results.
see people told you cannot tested father's dna apparently think y & mitochondrial dna there or can tested. don't know females male sex chromosome.
i'm under impression isn't possible , father need 1 tested. true? don't have relationship father , don't have contact of relatives i'm unsure of do. advice?
