The concept that the Y chromosome is "in danger" or "dying" refers to the gradual loss of genes on the Y chromosome over millions of years of evolution. Historically, the Y chromosome was the same size as the X chromosome and carried a similar number of genes. However, over time, the Y chromosome has shrunk and now contains far fewer genes—about 55 compared to the X chromosome’s 1,100.

This gene loss sparked speculation that the Y chromosome might eventually disappear. Scientists have observed similar phenomena in some species, where males exist without a Y chromosome. In these cases, other genetic mechanisms have taken over the role of determining sex.

Recent studies have shown that the Y chromosome may be more stable than initially thought. It has developed mechanisms to prevent further gene loss, including gene duplication and reshuffling of genetic material to maintain essential functions. Some experts now believe that the Y chromosome is not disappearing anytime soon, and the alarm about its "extinction" may be overstated.

In summary, the Y chromosome's evolution is a fascinating area of research, but claims abo ut the "death" of men due to the loss of the Y chromosome are highly speculative and far from being a present-day concern.
