We all came from Africa, so why bother with a genetic genealogy test?
1. Many things have happened in the last 100,000 years.
2. After all, 100,000 years is just a blip in the DNA timelin
3. Wait, where's Africa?
4. What is genetic genealogy?
1. Human DNA has undergone many changes in the 100,000+ years since everyone lived in a single continent, and these changes can tell us about our genetic past.
All genetic genealogy tests yield the same type of information.
1. True
2. False
3. It's all DNA anyway, right?
4. I'm still confused, what is genetic genealogy?
1. Y-DNA tests and mtDNA tests, for example, yield very different information about single lines of your genetic ancestors. Autosomal tests attempt to measure information about multiple genetic ancestors.
What are some of the potential pitfalls of genetic genealogy?
1. Results might suggest an adoption or illegitimacy.
2. My ethnic identity might be disturbed by the results.
3. The results might inadvertently reveal health information.
4. All of the above.
1. Anyone who is thinking about undergoing genetic genealogy testing should conduct some basic research to understand the implications of testing.
What are some of the benefits of genetic genealogy?
1. I can validate some of my previous genealogical research.
2. I might confirm or deny a relationship between individuals.
3. It is the forefront of science, and I get to play along.
4. All of these answers are correct.
1. Once you understand the limitations of genetic genealogy, you can begin to research the many benefits of this type of genealogical research.
Should I sign up for a genetic genealogy test without doing any prior research?
1. Sure - heck, I've been doing genealogy for years.
2. Sure - after all, I saw it on TV.
3. No way!
4. Why would I have to research genetic genealogy?
1. People need to learn more about the benefits and potential pitfalls of genetic genealogy before undergoing testing, regardless of how many years they've been doing genealogical research, or what they saw on TV.
Genetic genealogy is a scam, created by big business to capitalize on consumer ignorance.
1. True - I think a CEO invented it as a pyramid scheme.
2. False!
3. If you put genetic in the title, it sounds important!
4. Those genealogists are suckers.
1. False, of course. Genetic genealogy was created by and is still used by anthropologists.
The results of a genetic genealogy test might reveal health information about me.
1. True!
2. False!
3. My DNA knows exactly how much I weigh.
4. Genetics has nothing to do with my health information.
1. Genetic genealogists should know that a Y-DNA test might detect infertility, and a full mtDNA sequencing test might detect mitochondrial disease.
Can genetic genealogy track the town that an individual gene came from?
1. Yes - my 'handsome' gene came from Innsbruck, Austria.
2. No
3. How the heck should I know?
4. I give up.
1. So far, genetic genealogy only attempts to give a very broad potential origin of mutations. The ability to resolve mutations to a country or town is still just beginning, and may never be possible.
Most genetic genealogy tests are useless since they only inform about a single DNA line.
1. False - after all, I've already spent so much on genealogy!
2. True - complete waste of money.
3. It's all made up anyway!
4. Is this quiz almost over?
1. As any genealogist knows, even a little additional information about a person's ancestry is valuable.
