Answer: D.  It is usually caused by three copies of chromosome 21.

Explanation:

Down syndrome is a genetic disorder. It is caused by the trisomy of chromosome number 21 that means the presence of a third copy of chromosome number 21 is responsible for this disorder. This is caused by the abnormal cell division during gamete formation that may be sperm or egg cells in parents.
