All humans can mate with Africans and produce viable offspring
and the DNA split with Africans goes back 160k years
Humans have 23 chromosomes
Chimps have 24 chromosomes
So they cant produce viable offspring
The Chimp Split dates back 7 mil years
The split with Neanderthals is 0.5 mil
It is barely possible that mating with Neanderthals was possible
but DNA so far shows no trace of it
Keep in mind, there are 30000 genes and only the Y gene and the Mitochondrial DNA gene have been analysed
