Down's Syndrome



Cells normally carry two carry two matched sets of twenty-three chromosomes for a total of forty-six chromosomes. One set of twenty-three chromosomes comes from each parent. Down's syndrome occurs when one chromosome pair is damaged. That pair is designated as chromosome #21.

As a woman grows older, she faces a greater risk of having a baby with Down's syndrome. For example, a woman in her twenties faces a risk of about 1 in 4,000. By the age of thirty-five, that risk has increased to 1 in 400 and, by the age of forty-five, to 1 in 35.

Men with Down's syndrome appear to be uniformly sterile. That is, they are unable to have children. Women with Down's syndrome, however, are usually able to have babies. About half of these babies will also be born with Down's syndrome.

What is DNA?


A human being is made up of millions of cells. Inside each of these cells is a small chemical called DNA.

DNA is like a thumbprint, it carries information about you. Nobody, not even your mum and dad will have the same DNA as you (unless you have an identical twin).

The long string of DNA is divided up into small portions that are called genes.

A gene is something that gives you a characteristic, such as the colour of your eyes, or different types of cells, such as heart of liver cell.

You inherit your genes from your mum and dad.
Each human being has 23 pair of chromosomes. One chromosome comes from your mum and the other comes from your dad.
