An extra chromosome will produce an aneuploidy. It may have severe consequences on the resulting zygote.

<h3>Aneuploidies and chromosome abnormalities</h3>

The term 'chromosome abnormalities' refers to different types of problems that occur in meiosis which are associated with the disjunction of chromosomes.

The most common chromosomal abnormality is called aneuploidy, which means an abnormal number of chromosomes.

Aneuploidy is caused by the presence of an extra or due to the lack (missing) of a chromosome during meiosis.

For example, a trisomy is an aneuploidy due to the presence of an extra chromosome (three copies of the same chromosome instead of two).
