<span>Trisomy is a condition in which a person's cells have three chromosomes in a single set. Normally, a person's chromosomes come in pairs and humans have 23 pairs of these chromosomes (46 in total).

When a person has a trisomy disorder, an additional chromosome is found in one of the pairs of chromosomes. When this happens the individual has a total of 47 chromosomes in his cells. Down syndrome, Edward syndrome, and Patau syndrome are the most common gene abnormalities caused by trisomy disorder.</span>

Consider the diagram of a eukaryote and a prokaryote. According to cell theory,
Artemon [7]

both are single cells that carry out the functions of life

Explanation:

Both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells are single cells according to the cell theory and they carry out the functions of life.

  • The cell theory postulates that all living organisms are made up of cells and that the cells are the basic organizational unit of life.
  • It also proposes that all cells arise from pre-existing cells.

Eukaryotic cells differs from prokaryotic cells in that they have true nucleus and membrane bound organelles.

Despite this seeming different, both cells are able to carryout different life functions as unit and when they combine together, they advance into higher organization of life.
