One possible result of chromosomal breakage is for a fragment to join a nonhomologous chromosome. What is this type of chromosomal alteration called <u>translocation.</u>

A chromosomal fragment is translocated when it is moved from one genomic sequence to another. Around two nonhomologous chromosomes, a translocation mechanism takes place in order to permit the interchange of fragments created by chromosomal breakage.

When a segment of one chromosome separates and affixes towards another chromosome, translocation takes place. If there is neither genetic material growth nor loss in the cell, such a form of rearrangement would be referred to as balanced.

Paraphin [41]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The priority list will be like this

  1. Fruit Trees
  2. Birds
  3. Monkeys
  4. Tigers
<h2>Explanation:</h2>

In an ecosystem, producers are the first level of the food chain. And we know that plants are producers because they produce their own food. So, fruit trees will be at the beginning of the food chain. After producers comes the primary consumers. Primary consumers are animals that feed on producers. Both birds and monkeys feed on fruit trees, so they are the next in line after fruit trees. Finally, secondary consumers eat primary consumers. As tigers eat animals i.e monkeys etc so they are secondary consumers, and thus they are last on the food chain list.
