Down Syndrome By: Natalie Brennan
What is Down syndrome? Down syndrome is a genetic condition in which a person has 47 chromosomes instead of the usual 46.  This disorder causes mental retardation and other problems.  Down syndrome ranges in severity, so developmental problems may range from mild to serious.
Causes of Down syndrome There are 3 possible abnormalities which all result in extra genetic material from chromosome 21,which causes Down syndrome. 1 2 Trisomy 21 Mosaic Down syndrome 3 ,[object Object]
 With Trisomy 21 there are 3 copies of chromosome 21, instead of the usual 2 copies.Translocation Down syndrome ,[object Object]
With Mosaic Down syndrome some cells have an extra copy of chromosome 21, but not all.
Mosaic Down syndrome is caused by abnormal cell division after fertilization.
 occurs when part of a chromosome 21becomes attached onto another chromosome, before or at conception.
Children with Translocation have the usual 2 copies of chromosome 21, but have additional material from chromosome 21 stuck to the translocated chromosome. MOST cases of Down syndrome are NOT inherited.
Common physical signs of Down syndrome Individuals with Down syndrome have a widely recognized appearance. Common physical signs include: ,[object Object]
small ears
small mouth
upward slanting eyes
