The value of Male- and Fem ale-lines

Is there DNA present that is passed unchanged by the Male- or Female-line?

Structure of a typical anim al cell

DNA of a Male cell divided in four types

62 auto-some chromosomes Mitochondrial DNA (nucleus) (egg) 1 1 X-chromosome Y-chromosome (nucleus) (nucleus)

DNA of a Fem ale cell divided in four types

62 auto-some chromosomes Mitochondrial DNA (nucleus) (egg) 2 X-chromosomes Y-chromosomes (nucleus) (nucleus)

What is the relevance to measure the value of the Male- or Female-line?

3 .0 0 0 active Fem ale-lines

Conclusion

 There is no relevance to focus on the Male-line because the 3 remaining lines have all proven they can produce excellent jumpers  It is important to focus on the Female-line because there are
