A) Deletion
B) Duplication
C) Inversion
D) Reciprocal translocation
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Inversion involves a reverse order of genes in a part of chromosome. ABCDEFGH has been shown infigure where breakes occur between A and B as well as between D and E. Reunion at broken ends may lead to inversion of the segment BCD into DCB. In deletion, a section of chromosome is lost. In duplication a piece of chromosome is copied next to an identical section. In reciprocal translocation, a segment from a chromosome is translocated into a non- homologous chromosome from which a segment is reciprocally transferred to the first chromosome.
