We study the dependence on the quark mass of the compositeness of the lowest-lying odd parity hyperon states. Thus, we pay attention to $Lambda-$like states in the strange, charm and beauty, sectors which are dynamically generated using a unitarized meson-baryon model. In the strange sector we use an SU(6) extension of the Weinberg-Tomozawa meson-baryon interaction, and we further implement the heavy-quark spin symmetry to construct the meson-baryon interaction when charmed or beauty hadrons are involved. In the three examined flavor sectors, we obtain two $J^P=1/2^-$ and one $J^P=3/2^-$ $Lambda$ states. We find that the $Lambda$ states which are bound states (the three $Lambda_b$) or narrow resonances (one $Lambda(1405)$ and one $Lambda_c(2595)$) are well described as molecular states composed of $s$-wave meson-baryon pairs. The $frac{1}{2}^-$ wide $Lambda(1405)$ and $Lambda_c(2595)$ as well as the $frac{3}{2}^-$ $Lambda(1520)$ and $Lambda_c(2625)$ states display smaller compositeness and so they would require new mechanisms, such as $d$-wave interactions.
