If you get 50% of dna from each parent, and there’s a finite amount of dna in each one, in theory, if you had enough kids (an impossibly large quantity) would your kids eventually be genetically identical to previous kids? Would the possible number of dna combination end eventually?
In: 20
The total number of kids you could actually have would be pretty small. Being generous at 50 years of fertility and 9 months per baby that’s 62 kids. The world record for multiple babies at once is 10. So even if we assume each pregnancy was a 10 pack that’s 620 kids. Way less then would be needed for a reasonable chance of a duplicate
