Best Answer

If you have one additional pair of CHROMOSOME 23, you have Down syndrome.

If a person has fewer than 46 chromosomes, they will die. With more than 46 chromosomes, it depends on the chromosome type , but mostly disorders or syndromes will occur. Death is also a possibility in this case.

Answer

The condition wherein the number of chromosomes in a individual is more or less than the expected number of chromosomes is called aneuploidy.

Examples include Down's Sydrome (three sets of chromosome 21), Klinefelter's syndrome (one extra X chromosome in males), Turner's syndrome (one X chromosome less in females), Edward syndrome (extra chromosome 18).
