A member asked:
Now is a partial trisomy formed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Partial trisomy: "partial" trisomy refers to only having an extra copy of part of the chromosome, not the entire chromosome as is the case in full trisomies. The extra piece is usually inserted into or attached to another chromosome. Hope that helps.
