What was Down syndrome called in 1940?
It was called Down Syndrome back then, too.
What type of Down syndrome is 'Mosaic'?
its where some cells are "down syndrome" cells and some are "typical" cells. meaning some cells have three sets of the 21st chromosome and some have the normal 2 sets.
How are the cells of a person with Down syndrome different from those of a person without Down syndrome?
In Down syndrome, a person's cells have an extra copy of chromosome 21. In other words, instead of a pair of chromosomes, a person with down syndrome has three of that chromosome. Down syndrome most often occurs when chromosomes fail to separate properly during meiosis. People with down syndrome have a degree of mental retardation. Heart defects are also common, but can be treated.
What is down Autism?
There is no such thing. Down syndrome and autism are separate conditions.
How do the cells of people with down syndrom differ from those of others?
People with Down syndrome have an extra copy of chromosome 21 in their cells, leading to 47 chromosomes instead of the usual 46. This genetic condition can result in various physical and cognitive differences, such as distinctive facial features and intellectual disabilities, compared to individuals without Down syndrome.

What can be diagnosed by examining a karyotype of an individuals white blood cells?
A karyotype of an individual's white blood cells can be used to diagnose chromosomal abnormalities such as Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, and Klinefelter syndrome. It can also detect genetic disorders caused by aneuploidy or large structural chromosomal changes.
