Corner did you know that the male Y
0:07
chromosome is evolving faster than the
0:09
female X chromosome join us as we
0:12
explore this breakthrough study that
0:14
reveals fascinating details about our
0:17
Evolution and what it means for the
0:19
future of genetic research let's get
0:22
started scientists have made a
0:25
groundbreaking discovery about our DNA
0:28
the white chromosome which is
0:30
responsible for determining male sex is
0:33
evolving much faster than the X
0:35
chromosome which both males and females
0:38
have this study compared the genetic
0:41
changes in six different primate species
0:44
including humans but what does this mean
0:48
the Y chromosome has fewer genes than
0:50
the X chromosome and it's much smaller
0:54
despite this it's changing rapidly which
0:57
might help males adapt to new envir
0:59
enironmental pressures or other
1:02
challenges these rapid changes could
1:04
impact everything from fertility to how
1:07
we understand male health issues why is
1:10
this happening researchers believe that
1:13
the smaller size and fewer genes of the
1:16
Y chromosome allow it to change more
1:18
quickly plus it doesn't recombine as
1:22
often as the X chromosome leading to
1:25
faster Evolution so what's next this
1:29
disc Discovery opens up new questions
1:31
about how our genes evolve and adapt it
1:35
could lead to new insights into genetic
1:37
diseases and how we can tackle them in
1:39
the future stay tuned to learn more
