Down syndrome refers to the genetic disease caused by the non-disjunction of chromosome number 21.

Non-disjunction refers to the event in which the homologous chromosomes or sister chromatids fail to separate properly during a cell division.

In Down syndrome, the sister chromatids of chromosome 21 fail to separate properly which results in the formation of a gamete with 2 copies of chromosome 21.

When this gamete fertilizes with another gamete, it results in the formation of a zygote with 47 chromosomes, that is, 46 chromosomes + extra copy of chromosome 21.
