The Neanderthal genome was basically the same as our own, containing around 20,000 qualities packaged into 23 chromosomes.
Like us, they had two duplicates of 22 of those chromosomes (one from each parent), and furthermore a couple of sex chromosomes. Females had two X chromosomes, while guys had one X and one Y.

Chromosomes are difficult to succession since they contain a ton of monotonous “Junk” DNA, so the Neanderthal Y genome has just been to some degree sequenced. Nonetheless, the enormous lump that has been sequenced contains renditions of a few of the very qualities that are in the cutting edge human Y chromosome. In present day people, a Y chromosome quality called SRY launches the course of an XY undeveloped organism forming into a male. The SRY quality assumes this part in all primates, so we accept it accomplished for Neanderthals also – despite the fact that we haven’t tracked down the Neanderthal SRY quality itself.
