    Can be traced for generations

    Explanation:

    Mitochondrial is inherited from your mother, Nuclear DNA is located within the nucleus of eukaryote cells and usually has two copies per cell while mitochondrial DNA is located in the mitochondria and contains 100-1,000 copies per cell, therefore they are not the same, and it is favored over nuclear DNA because a small amount of it is useful in forensic investigations
