It may result in problems with the person affecting them on a basic level, or may go fully unnoticed. A common disorder that can be caused by having an extra chromosome is Down's Syndrome.

Chromosomal additions occur when an extra piece of a chromosome is added. This can lead to genetic abnormalities and developmental disorders in individuals. The extra genetic material can disrupt the normal function of genes on the affected chromosome.
