GENEC MUTATIONS PROVE WE ALL CAME FROM ONE MAN AND ONE WOMAN By looking at the mutations in DNA in the mitocondria of cells of women of various ethnicities, researchers have been able to conclude that all women came from a single woman. They gave her the name mitochondrial Eve. The DNA in mitochondria is passed down exclusively from mothers. Also, they concluded that this original mother lived about 6,000 to 6,800 years ago this finding is a complete agreement with the biblical time frame but what is even more fascinating is the fact that there appears to be three basic mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) lineages which in themselves Trace back to one original mother as mentioned. Geneticists call them "M" "N" and "R". This is consistent with Noah's three daughters-in-law, who would have had a different variety of DNA mutations because they came from a much wider pre-flood gene pool. On the other hand all men inherit the DNA in their Y chromosome exclusively from their father. As with women, genetic studies have revealed that all men have one original father who was given the name "Y chromosome Adam." However there have been no lineages in this line, which is consistent with the flood event where all the men were saved when Noah and his sons. Since the DNA and the Y chromosome is passed down exactly from the father to the son, there would be only one type of Y chromosome, which is what geneticists have found.
