What is a trisomy

Normally, all cells in the human body have 46 chromosomes, made up of 23 pairs of chromosomes. These 23 pairs of chromosomes contain all of the DNA to determine the health of the baby. Certain genetic anomalies can occur when a baby develops three copies of a particular chromosome instead of two. The risk of having a chromosomal condition increases as the mother gets older.
