We inherit 50% of mom and 50% of dad. Our siblings inherit 50% too, but not necessarily the same 50%.
Those 1%, 2%, 3%....I don't worry about those too much. They are in the plus or minus margin of error. On Family Tree DNA (FTDNA), this ethnicity estimate is on version 2. They are working on version 3. So I make the analogy of it being like a toddler. It's got a ways to go. If you remember your rounding rule from school....0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 stay. 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 round up. So you can "lose" a percent (or gain a percent) due to rounding errors. It's quite interesting to see the difference among siblings. You should eventually get around to testing yourself as well.
