Trisomy occurs when an individual has three copies of a particular chromosome instead of the usual two. This can happen during the formation of sperm or egg cells, leading to an extra copy of the chromosome in the resulting embryo. Trisomy can result in conditions like Down syndrome, where there is an extra copy of chromosome 21.

Trisomy is defined as the presence of three homologous chromosomes. For example, Down's Syndrome is caused by trisomy-21, 3 copies of chromosome 21.
The presence of three copies of a particular chromosome is known as trisomy. This genetic condition can lead to developmental abnormalities, such as Down syndrome which is caused by trisomy of chromosome 21.
A trisomy is when a person has 3 versions of a chromosome. 'Normal' humans will only have 2 of each chromosome. For example, having 3 versions of chromosome 21 is known as Trisomy 21 or Down Syndrome.

Trisomy an abnormality in chromosomal development.
A trisomy. A monosomy is when there is only one of a chromosome. A trisomy is when there are three of a chromosome. In Klinefelter's syndrome, there are three sex chromosomes.

Another name for trisomy-21, commonly known as Down syndrome, is trisomy 21.
Trisomy is defined as the presence of three homologous chromosomes. For example, Down's Syndrome is caused by trisomy-21, 3 copies of chromosome 21.
A trisomy is a condition in which a person has three copies of a chromosome instead of the usual two copies. A person can have full trisomy (three copies in every cell) or mosaic trisomy (three copies in some cells but not all).
My son is 3 years old with full trisomy 18. I have some videos on youtube that I've put together with lots of trisomy families I've found on facebook. My awareness video is of over 100 surviving kids of trisomy 13 and 18. Just go to youtube and search 'trisomy awareness' or trisomy advocacy' and you'll find them. There is also a website called 'livingwithtrisomy13.com' that has stories of over 100 trisomy 13 kids on it. I, also, personally know of two kids with trisomy 8. So, yes, there are cases of kids surviving trisomies other than trisomy 21 (Down Syndrome). :) Alisha Hauber
The root of Trisomy 21 is within the chromosomes of the body cells.
