Question
What type of chromosomal rearrangement occurs If a single chromosome suffers two double-strand breaks followed by DNA repair that fuses the remaining broken ends (nonhomologous end-joining) if the intervening fragment rotates by 180°

Step 1
To explain:
To explain type of chromosomal rearrangement in the double stranded breaks in single chromosome followed by DNA repair that fuses the remaining broken ends if the fragment rotates by 1800.

Step 2
Answer:
The type of chromosomal rearrangement in the double stranded breaks in single chromosome followed by DNA repair that fuses the remaining broken ends if the fragment rotates by 1800 is called inversion.
Inversion is the reversal of the linear orientation of a chromosome segment and the order of its gene sequence, in relation to the arrangement in the rest of the chromosome.

- A person with cancer walks into the classroom. As a biology class, we ask if we can examine some of the cancerous cells and find that many of these cancerous cells have an extra chromosome 10 (trisomy) leading to more cyclin for forming the MPF being made, leading to uncontrollable cell division (i.e. tumor and progression to cancer). What would cause extra chromosomes in cells (be it somatic or gametic cells)? Select one: a. None of these choices are linked to how sister chromatids separate and would lead to extra chromosomes in daughter cells of cell division. b. APC not functioning correctly to add ubiquitin to the cohesins, thus sister chromatids do not split correctly during cell division c. MPF itself would cause more chromosome replication d. APC is overly functioning adding cohesins to the sister chromatidsarrow_forwardwhat is length of chromosome 22 ?arrow_forwardCould you please explain simple terms how does the base sequence contained in the telomeric regions of chromosomes differ from that found elsewhere in the chromosome?arrow_forward
