Answers
To begin at the beginning (well, your beginning, anyway), you surely had two parents, a mother and father:
Parents
Continuing backwards, they each had two parents, giving you a total of four grandparents:
Going back still further, each of your ancestors in turn had two parents, indicated by prepending an extra “great” each time. For example, your maternal lineage is:
Ancestors
and so on (and similarly for “fathers” instead of “mothers” at any level).
Since each ancestor has two parents (one mother and one father), you have a total of 2n ancestors at level n: two parents, four grandparents, eight great-grandparents, sixteen great-great-grandparents, and so on. Summing up, you have a total of 2+22 +23 +...+2n =2n+1 − 2 ancestors of level n or lower; for example, your total number of parents and grandparents and great-grandparents combined is 23+1 − 2 = 16 − 2 = 14. In short, your ancestors form a perfect binary tree – simplicity itself.
