Chromosomes are the string-like creatures present in every human cell and contain genetic material. In total, 23 singular chromosomes are present in every sperm and egg. When these come together, forming pairs of one chromosome from each parent, the embryo is formed. The abnormalities due to the presence of additional chromosomes, the absence of chromosomes, or any other quality issues can result in disorders such as developmental delays, trisomy, Turner syndrome, physical abnormalities, miscarriage, stillbirth, etc.
