For example, Trisomy 21 is a more common birth defect which is called Down syndrome. Therefore, if Chromosome 21 which is one of the 23 pairs is being abnormally copied will result in a child born with Down syndrome. In addition, the average IQ of young adults diagnosed with Down syndrome is around 50 compared to children without the condition with an IQ of 100.4 Individuals with Down
miscarriages.
While, Trisomy 9 leads to
associated malformations in the skull and nervous system (craniofacial) region, such as a sloping forehead, a bulbous nose, short eyelid folds (palpebral fissures), deeply set eyes, low-set, malformed ears, congenital heart defects, etc…. The numbers “9” and “16” refers to the chromosome in question. In some cases, the patients have mosaic Trisomy which means the defect only shows up in certain cells. The results of this extra chromosome can vary but tend to manifest in the form of mild birth defects to very severe. There are several administered tests, invasive and non-invasive, to detect before pregnancy, during pregnancy and after birth. In fact, Ultrasonography imagery is one of the most popular ways of prenatal screening. In addition, ultrasound detection is very common during prenatal care. Ultrasounds are commonly used around patients seven weeks of pregnancy. Consequently, one use is for confirmation of pregnancy and to see if the mother is going to be expecting twins or more. Another type of scan that can be administered during an ultrasound scan is a nuchal scan. A nuchal scan is a sonographic prenatal screening scan that can help identify higher risks of chromosomal defects including Down’s syndrome in a fetus. This type of general use ultrasound screenings can
syndrome sometimes have shorter life-span and a higher risk for many conditions such as, stunted growth, hypotonia [low muscle tone], neurological disorders, congenital heart failure, thyroid problems, gastrointestinal problems, infertility, hearing, creation and eye and social disorders. made in his image The bible is clear that all people are of God’s (Colossians1:16)5 and I Peter 2:176 states that we "honor all men, women, and children". Another, common example is Trisomy 18 (Edward’s syndrome). In 1960, named after John H. Edwards, a British medical geneticist, who first described the syndrome by the presence of an extra chromosome on chromosome 18.7 Other Trisomy birth defects include: Trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome), Trisomy 8 (Warkany (Mosaicism Trisomy syndrome) syndrome). 16) (Trisomy and Trisomy 9 Namely, normally some triggers
