I have seen the migration charts for tracing deep ancestry for Y chromosome and for mtDNA. (e.g there is one at http://www.mitosearch.org/migration_map_new.pdf)
My questions
a) Why are the migration paths for mtDNA different from those of Y? Isnt it logical that if men migrated along a certain path, in most of the cases, if not all, their wives would be migrating with them?
b) is it not possible to correlate certain mtDNA statistics in a population with the Y statistics in the same population? If yes, is there any place that shows them together for the entire world? If not, then why not....how come our mothers are from Venus and fathers from Mars??
