Exchange of genetic information between two non-homologous chromosomes is called? Inversion Translocation Duplication Deletion

What chromosome rearrangement is thought to be the source of new genes?

Describe how errors in chromosome structure occur through inversions and translocations

Which of the following is false? Group of answer choices With a pericentric inversion, there is no loss in genetic material. Haploinsufficiency is caused by a duplication event causing increased expression of a gene. An effect of aneuploidy is that it changes the dosages of some genes. Pseudodominance indicates that one of the homologous chromosomes has a deletion. Sterility is a possible effect of autopolyploidy

A chromosome initially has the following segments:A B • C D E F G Draw the chromosome, identifying its segments, that would result from the following mutations. Q. Paracentric inversion that includes DEFG

Briefly explain how transposition causes mutations and chromosome rearrangements.

Which process can cause duplications? misalignment of homologous chromosomes at repetitive sequences followed by crossing over repair of a double-strand break by homologous recombination a mutagen that introduces point mutations repair of two double-strand breaks that occur in the same chromatid by nonhomologous end-joining

Which region of eukaryotic DNA prevents single-strand breaks and chromosome unraveling, and serves as a signal to DNA repair enzymes that the linear chromosome does not need repairing? the centromere the terminator the promoter the telomere the operator
