The cause of downs syndrome is a process called disjunction.In this process the two copies of chromosomes 21 fail to separate during the formation of egg, resulting in the formation of egg having two copies of chromosome 21.. when this egg gets fertilzed, the resulting baby ends up havng three copies of chromosome 21 in each cell... however the cause for this disjunction is not known...

down syndrome
Down syndrome results when cells receive three copies of chromosome 21.
Most cases of Down syndrome result from trisomy 21, which means each cell in the body has three copies of chromosome 21 instead of the usual two copies. The extra genetic material disrupts the normal course of development, causing the characteristic features of Down syndrome.Hope this helps.
Disorders, such as Down's Syndrome, are caused by nondisjunction.
Down syndrome is generally the preferred spelling, although Down's syndrome is sometimes used in American sources.
Down syndrome can affect homeostasis by impacting the body's ability to regulate various physiological processes such as temperature, blood pressure, and hormone levels. Individuals with Down syndrome may experience challenges with maintaining equilibrium in these systems, leading to potential health complications. It's important for individuals with Down syndrome to receive regular medical monitoring and support to help manage these effects on homeostasis.
Most cases of down syndrome are not inherited. Translocation Down syndrome can be inherited.
Down syndrome IS the diagnosis.
