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.
  • Reciprocal translocation is a chromosome abnormality caused by exchange of parts between non-homologous chromosomes.
  • Robertsonian translocation occurs when two non-homologous chromosomes get attached, meaning that given two healthy pairs of chromosomes, one of each pair "sticks" together.
