Answer:

The answer is "Someone who had Jewish ancestors."

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to define Jews before the law, Nazi legislators went back to people´s genealogy. Anybody with three or more grandparents born into the Jewish religious community were legally considered Jews. Those ancestors were seen as "racially Jewish" and that "status" was passed onto their children and grandchildren.
