Understanding the extinction of Y-chromosome- Beginning of this end of human era Importance of Y- chromosome  The Y chromosome plays a crucial role in human reproduction, primarily responsible for determining male sex and initiating male development. Key points of its role:- Sex Determination: The Y chromosome contains the SRY gene , which is the master switch for male development. When present, it triggers the development of male reproductive organs, such as testes and prostate.  Spermatogenesis: The Y chromosome also carries genes essential for sperm production. These genes help regulate the process of spermatogenesis, ensuring the development of healthy sperm. Male Fertility: The presence of the Y chromosome is vital for male fertility. Mutations or deletions in certain regions of the Y chromosome can lead to infertility or reduced sperm quality. In essence, the Y chromosome is a key factor in the biological pathway that leads to male development and reproductive function.   Afte
