Triple X syndrome is caused by non-dysjunction during meiosis, the female has 3 X chromosomes instead of 2 Turner syndrome is when a female only gets one X instead of the two needed, it is the result of non-dysjunction Down syndrome is also a cause of non-dysjunction, its when the 21st chromosome doesn't seperate properly during meiosis and so the child gets three 21st chromosomes instead of 2. Point mutation is when is like substitution, deletion or insertion. Occurs when a codon (3 nitrogen bases on the mRNA ) is either substituted, deleted or inserted causing a change in the protein produced by the amino acids.
