The platypus holds the record among mammals for having the most sex chromosomes, with females possessing five pairs of X chromosomes (X1-X5) and males having five X and five Y chromosomes; during male meiosis, these 10 chromosomes form a unique alternating chain structure (X1-Y1-X2-Y2-X3-Y3-X4-Y4-X5-Y5), and this system shares more similarities with birds than with eutherian mammals, suggesting the mammalian XY sex chromosome system evolved after the monotreme lineage diverged.
