Показать описание
Down syndrome (also known as trisomy 21) is a genetic disorder caused most often by a meiotic nondisjunction of chromosome 21. It may also be caused by a Robertsonian translocation--or less commonly by mosaicism. It is characterized by a number of clinical findings, such as epicanthal folds, a simian crease, brushfield spots, and more.

These kind of story lines are so cool. Wish I had come up with this. I recently studied Jim Kwick super brain technology of how to remember things and my own studies plus J. KWICK teachings somehow led me here. I'm so happy. Thank you. 💛
