WHEN IDENTICAL TWINS ARE CONCEIVED

- zygote splits into two very early in


development, leading to the
formation of two separate embryos.
TRISOMY 21 (DESCRIBE THE PROCESS)

- In this case, an error during the


formation of the egg or the sperm
results in either one having an extra
chromosome. So after the egg and
sperm unite, the resulting cells will
also have three copies of
chromosome 21. The complete extra
copy of chromosome 21 is in all of
the person's cells—or a complete
trisomy.
WHAT IS INHERITED MUTATED GENES

- If a parent carries a gene mutation in


their egg or sperm, it can pass to
their child. These hereditary (or
inherited) mutations are in almost
every cell of the person's body
throughout their life. Hereditary
mutations include cystic fibrosis,
hemophilia, and sickle cell disease.
- Some mutations are hereditary
because they are passed down to an
offspring from a parent carrying a
mutation through the germ line,
meaning through an egg or sperm cell
carrying the mutation. There are also
nonhereditary mutations that occur
