Answer:

Translocation

Explanation:

Changes in chromosome include deletions, duplications, inversions, and translocations.

  • Deletion occurs when an end of a chromosome breaks off.
  • Duplication is the presence of a chromosome segment more than once in the same chromosome.
  • Translocation is when a fragment of chromosomal breakage join a nonhomologous chromosome.
