My mom has insisted for years that she's part Native American. I said she's not. She spent money on multiple DNA tests that all said she's 100% white from Britain, the Netherlands, and so on. She finally got angry at this and without telling me got a mitochondrial DNA test that finally said she's 0.1% Native American (that's the actual number the test gave). Is it possible that Native American DNA could be gone from her DNA but still exist mitochondrially?

very interesting

Yes

>0.1%

Mitochondrial DNA is always inherited from the mother right? It doesn't combine with the father.

So what does it mean to have .1% Native American mitochondrial DNA? Either you trace back you maternal line to a Native American or you don't

No your mom is not part Native American

At least she still has her job as a senator.
