It is said to be the most common human genetic abnormality (about one per 1000 births).
It usually happens spontaneously (both parents normal),
but it will result in 50% of children of parents with Down's (rare, they have low fertility).
The causes of a hereditary disease is a missing chromosome, and extra chromosome. Like in Down Syndrome there is an extra chromosome 26.
