What about HER mother?

Asked by Dutchess_III (46829points) January 15th, 2015

I watched Nature last night and learned that through mitochondrial DNA testing that we all trace back to one woman who lived about 100,000 years ago, in Africa. My question is, what about HER mother? Did we not actually originate with her? Or her grandmother, or great grandmother, and so on?

Can you shed some light on this?

And don’t give me any crap about asking a family question again!
