Why are individuals with an extra chromosome 21, which causes Down syndrome, more numerous than individuals with an extra chromosome 3 or chromosome 16? (see book section: Module 8.19) Extra copies of the other somatic chromosomes are probably fatal. There are probably more genes on chromosome 21 than on either chromosomes 3 or 16. Nondisjunction of chromosomes 3 and 16 probably occurs more frequently. Down syndrome results in more serious symptoms than either trisomy 3 or trisomy 16.

Extra copies of the other somatic chromosomes are probably fatal.
