Do autosomes have more than two chromosomes?
Autosomes come in pairs usually (one from the mother, and one from the father), but, sometimes, as in with genetic disorders, you might find things like trisomies, where you have 3 chromosomes for the same autosome, or monosomies, where you only have 1 instead of two.

Humans can survive with extra or missing sex chromosomes, but usually an odd number of autosomes results in spontaneous abortion of the embryo.
