Why isn't down syndrome hereditary?

Down syndrome is primarily caused by an extra copy of chromosome 21, a condition known as trisomy 21.

While there are rare hereditary forms of Down syndrome, most cases arise sporadically and are not passed down genetically. Therefore, Down syndrome is not considered hereditary in the conventional sense.
