What trisomy causes Down syndrome?
Well, honey, Down syndrome is caused by an extra copy of chromosome 21, also known as trisomy 21. It's like having a bonus chromosome that messes with the genetic party. So, to put it simply, trisomy 21 is the culprit behind Down syndrome.
Are there different types of Down syndrome?
There are three different types of Down syndrome: Standard Trisomy 21, Translocation, and Mosaicism. Standard Trisomy 21 is when the extra chromosome 21 comes from either the egg or sperm cell. Between 90% and 95% of all Down syndrome is Standard Trisomy 21.

Which of the following are example(s) of trisomy---Turner Syndrome Down's Syndrome or Klinefelter's Syndrome?
Trisomy means having three copies of a chromosomes. Turner's syndrome is NOT an example of trisomy. Someone with Turner's syndrome has only one X chromosome. Down's syndrome IS an example of trisomy. Someone with Down's syndrome has 3 copies of chromosome 21. Klinefelter's syndrome is a tricky one. On one hand, it would be considered trisomy because they have 3 sex chromosomes. However, they are not all the SAME sex chromosomes. Someone with Klinefelter's has 2 X chromosomes and one Y chromosome.

What are the stages of Down syndrome?
There are three different kinds of Down syndrome: Translocation, Trisomy 21, and Mosaic.Translation: occurs when a piece of chromosome breaks off and attaches to another.Trisomy 21 (the most common kind): caused by meiotic disjunction, or in other words a gamete produces an extra of Chromosome 21.Mosaic is similar to Trisomy 21 in that it still has the extra chromosome in the cell, but also some of the other cells in the body have a normal amount of chromosomes.
