Polyploid or triploid.
Down syndrome is trisomy 21
People with Down syndrome, also called mongoloidism have 47 chromosomes. Having 65 chromosomes would be lethal, as normally having 47 chromosomes is lethal. Down syndrome is also known as trisomy 21, because instead of two copies of chromosome 21, a person with Down syndrome has three copies, which accounts for the 47th chromosome.
23 chromosomes have identical copies which leads to 48 chromosomes
The presence of three copies of a chromosome is known as a trisomy. An example would be Trisomy 21, also known as Down Syndrome.
Chromosomes are roughly made up of proteins and DNA
