[quote=Anonymous]Most people alive with DS have a mosaicism. That means that some of their cells have the genetic marker for it (trisomy 21) and some of their cells do not. The severity of the condition could be decided by how much and where the affected cells are in their bodies. Chances are that any fetus with a high number of affected cells does not survive the pregnancy. [/quote]
