Trisomy 21 (nondisjunction) Down syndrome is usually caused by an error in cell division called nondisjunction.. Nondisjunction results in an embryo with three copies of chromosome 21 instead of the usual two. Prior to or at conception, a pair of 21st chromosomes in either the sperm or the egg fails to separate.
This can be said with any meat purchase. While a rack of lamb or a decent chop might cost you between $12 to $15 per pound, one can easily buy lamb ribs for under $5. Prolificacressheepfarm.com, for example, sells its lamb meat for $4.50 to as much as $15 per pound. Ribs retail for as little as $4.50 per pound, while the loin and sirloin chops retail for $12 per pound.
The Red Meat Producersâ Organisation (RPO) informed The Butcher that local lamb and mutton prices were at their highest in August 2011, but dropped by 24% by January 2012. The current producersâ price is R45/46 per kg.
