Down syndrome is a genetic problem caused by

chromosomes. It is not a disease of any kind but a
kind of unexplained defect in which the child's
mental development and physical development are
late. It is a genetic disease that is a disorder
associated with chromosomes.

The fetus receives 46 chromosomes during pregnancy,

including 23 mothers and 23 fathers. However, a child with
Down syndrome has more than one copy of the 21st
chromosome, that is, 47 chromosomes are found in it,
which slows down his mental and physical development.
