If you have one additional pair of CHROMOSOME 23, you have DOWN SYNDROME.
If a person has fewer than 46 chromosomes, they will die. With more than 46 chromosomes, it depends on the chromosome type , but mostly disorders or syndromes will occur. Death is also a possibility in this case.
Answer
The condition wherein the number of chromosomes in a individual is more or less than the expected number of chromosomes is called aneuploidy.
Examples include Down's Sydrome (three sets of chromosome 21), Klinefelter's syndrome (one extra X chromosome in males), Turner's syndrome (one X chromosome less in females), Edward syndrome (extra chromosome 18).
Having more or less chromosomes than the normal number can lead to genetic disorders or developmental abnormalities. For example, Down syndrome occurs when there is an extra copy of chromosome 21, while Turner syndrome occurs when there is a missing X chromosome in females. These imbalances can result in physical and/or developmental challenges.

A human cell may have more or less than 46 chromosomes as a result of nondisjunction a process in what?
A human cell may have more or less than 46 chromosomes as a result of nondisjunction, which is a process that occurs during cell division where chromosomes fail to separate properly. This can lead to an incorrect number of chromosomes in the resulting daughter cells.
What happens during the first division of meiosis that does not happen in meiosis?
In Meiosis I: Separates homologous chromosomes In Meiosis II: Separates sister chromatids

What happens if a person have more chromosomes?
If it had more chromosomes it will cause to down's syndrome
What happens in telophase and cytokinesis?
the spindle fibers disassemble, and the chromosomes return to a less tightly coiled

What happens to chromosomes for meiosis to start?
The chromosomes divide.
What happens to the chromosomes when more cells are produced?
As a new baby grows, more cell must be made. This happens by the process of cell division. Each new cell has its own set of chromosomes carrying exactly the same information as the original fertilized cell.

A human cell may have more or less than 46 chromosomes as a result of nondisjunction a process in what?
A human cell may have more or less than 46 chromosomes as a result of nondisjunction, which is a process that occurs during cell division where chromosomes fail to separate properly. This can lead to an incorrect number of chromosomes in the resulting daughter cells.
Why are individual chromosomes more difficult to see during inter phase than during mitosis?
During interphase, individual chromosomes are less condensed and more dispersed throughout the nucleus, making them harder to distinguish. In contrast, during mitosis, chromosomes are highly condensed and arranged in a more compact and visible manner. This condensed state allows for easier visualization of individual chromosomes.
