Down's Syndrome
Down's syndrome is a genetic condition caused by the presence of an extra copy of chromosome 21. It leads to developmental delays, characteristic facial features, and varying degrees of intellectual disability. Early intervention, including speech and physical therapy, can improve quality of life for individuals with Down's syndrome.
