I don't know, but it is an interesting question. I haven't seen many Asian and black people who have down's syndrome. I've always assumed that Down's syndrome was more prevalant in Caucasians in comparision to other races, but i could be wrong.Can every section of humanity have Down's Syndrome? I've never seen a dwarf with it.
Down syndrome occurs in all human populations, and analogous effects have been found in other species such as chimpanzees[6] and mice.
Down syndrome occurs in all ethnic groups and among all economic classes.
Yes, they may be in every race, but are dwarves considered a race? Does having one condition (dwarfism) stop another (Down's) from forming?
People have done that. The problem is, the child is still retarded. Also, it's one hell of a lot of surgery to put someone thru. Especially someone with a bad heart (which people with Down's syndrome almost always have).If I had a child with Down Syndrome and had their tongue made smaller, eyes changed, etc, so people wouldn't take one look and know their condition, would that be unethical?
That tiger kinda looks like Matt Damon.
It's caused when the individual has 3 instead of 2 copies of the 21st chromosome. Animals probably have genetic problems but likely don't live to pass them on as much as humans. They certainly have genetic mutations. That is how you get some breeds like hairless cats and cats with curly hair. Poodles are a result of a mutation I think.That white tiger is Kenny Rogers. He has a brother, Willie Nelson and a dad Conway Twitty. They were rescued from a breeder. When Kenny and Willie were born and the breeder saw them, he knew he was done with the parents. As you can tell from Kenny, they were very inbred and deformed.
Is Down's only a human condition?
so it is only a human condition?
