What is the difference between genetic defects and chromosomal abnormalities?
Those terms are synonymous - but genetic defect is more likely to be used to describe a physiological deformity that results from genetics, whereas a chromosomal abnormality might not produce a visible deformity.
Does the mother or father carry Edwards syndrome?
Edwards syndrome, also known as trisomy 18, is typically caused by a random error in cell division that results in an extra chromosome 18. This chromosomal abnormality can occur in either the mother or father, but it is more commonly associated with maternal age, as older mothers have a higher risk of chromosomal abnormalities during egg formation. Neither parent "carries" the syndrome in a hereditary sense, as it is usually not inherited but rather occurs as a sporadic event during conception.
Why does the mother's age matter in nondisjunction?
Mother's age is a significant factor in nondisjunction because the likelihood of chromosomal errors during meiosis increases as a woman ages. This is primarily due to the fact that a woman's eggs are formed during fetal development and remain in a suspended state until ovulation, leading to potential deterioration of the egg's chromosomal integrity over time. As a result, older mothers have a higher risk of having children with chromosomal abnormalities, such as Down syndrome, which is linked to nondisjunction events.
What are the causes of stillborn deliveries?
Some causes or stillbirths are: Cord accidents, such as a knot in the cord or the cord wrapped around the baby's neck, cutting off oxygen to the baby. Infectious disease in the mother. Chronic health conditions in the mother, such as high blood pressure, diabetes or kidney disease. Poor fetal growth, usually caused by high blood pressure, smoking, etc., for the mother. Birth defects from chromosomal abnormality, or genetic or environmental reasons.
Why is meiosis to as a reduction division?
Because daughter nucleii have the half of chromosomal number of mother nucleus
