About ninety-five percent of all Down syndrome cases are the result of having three copies of chromosome 21, also called Trisomy 21. Instead of having 46 chromosomes (23 pairs,) a person with Down syndrome has 47 chromosomes because of an extra copy of chromosome 21. Three types of Down syndrome: Trisomy 21 is the most common type of Down syndrome. An extra chromosome gets replicated in every cell of the developing body. Translocation accounts for about 3 percent of Down syndrome cases. In this case, the baby is born with the usual 46 chromosomes but has a copy of chromosome 21 that attaches to another chromosome within the cell. Mosaicism accounts for about 2 percent of Down syndrome cases. The baby will have some cells containing 46 chromosomes and some containing 47, resulting in fewer and less-severe symptoms. Some Myths: People with DS all look the same People with DS cannot achieve normal life goals People with DS don’t live very long Only older mothers will have babies with DS International Down Syndrome Day: March 21 Everyone around the world spreads awareness about DS during the month of March.
