Pros of hiring an architect. 1  You, as the owner, have an agent to keep an eye on the contractor and workmanship throughout the project. The architect has a fiduciary responsibility to the owner (under a full service contract). 2  Better design.
Converting centiMorgans into percentages. In order to get an approximate percentage of shared DNA from a Family Tree DNA Family Finder test, take all of the segments above 5 cM, add them together and then divide by 68. The way the calculation works is that your total genome in cMs with the Family Finder test is 6770 cM.
How do you determine the centiMorgan value for a DNA segment? The Family Tree DNA bioinformatics team works with centiMorgan (cM) data from the International HapMap project. Current knowledge of centiMorgan values across the human genome comes from the International HapMap project testing. The project tested father-mother-child trios from global population groups. Using this information, they mapped recombination rates across the human genome.
