Answer:

The presence of an additional chromosome

Explanation:

Look at "pair" 21. See how there are THREE chromosomes instead of TWO? Normally, there would only be two chromosomes in each pair but this karyotype shows a trisomy (see def. below) of the 21st pair. This was caused by a nondisjunction mutation of the 21st pair. The is also the karyotype of a person with Down's Syndrome.

Definition of Trisomy:

A condition of the presence of three chromosomes in a pair instead of two. This normally causes developmental irregularity.
