When cells form in an embryo (new baby), and cells split, their chromosomes all split in two, with one set staying in the original cell, and the other set going to the new cell. Sometimes, randomly, a chromosome set stays in the original cell, so it has 2 sets, and the new cell has none, at all. If this occurs with chromosome 21, Down syndrome can be the result.
No
4 daughter cell are form.
When a sperm cell and an egg cell unite they form a zygote which now has the DNA it needs to divide and form a new individual. The sperm cell and the egg cell have one half the amount of DNA necessary to form a new individual.
The embryo starts multiplying cells to form a baby.
spindle fibers form a bridge between the ends of the cell
During the cell cycle, a cell grows prepares for division & divides to form two daughter cells, each of which then begins the cell cycle all over again.
yes they can i had a step brother that was born with it.
for grip you downsyndrome
i have a brother with downsyndrome and my parents treat him normally. once in the store my mom put my brother in a corner and someone was like " he has downsyndrome give him some slack." and my mom said "just because he is not normal doesnt mean you should treat him too much different." treat him/her the same as a regular kid!
then w=you have downsyndrome
The parent cell would now have two copies of the chromosome
Then there would not be a cell.
