Answer: Structural chromosomal mutation

Explanation: In translocation, a small piece of chromosome is detached from one chromosome and is attached to another non-homologous chromosome. Translocation can be simple, shift or reciprocal.

Simple translocation involves single break in the chromosome. The broken piece gets attached to the end of the non-homologous chromosome.

In Shift translocation, the broken segment of one chromosome gets inserted interstitially in a non-homologous chromosome.

Segment from one chromosome is exchanged with a segment from another non-homologous chromosome simultaneously in Reciprocal translocation.

What are the structural parts of a moss sporophyte?

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

The sporophyte body comprises a long stalk, called a seta, and a capsule capped by a cap called the operculum. The capsule and operculum are in turn sheathed by a haploid calyptra which is the remains of the archegonial venter. The calyptra usually falls off when the capsule is mature.
