It's a translocation, specifically a balanced translocation.
translocation
The exchange of segments is called translocation.
breaks off and attach to adjacent chromatids on the homologous chromosome
In prophase 1 crossing over causes chromosome segments to exchange and leads to new combinations of genes
Crossing over allows daughter cells to be unique.1In genetics, traits that are usually linked, because they are caused by genes that are close together on the same chromosome, occasionally separate in offspring. This is called crossing-over, and is observed when geneticists are tracking traits in organisms.2In cytology, homologous chromosomes (e.g. the two copies of chromosome 7, or both copies of chromosome 12) can be seen to pair up during the first stage of meiosis (prophase I). The pair, which consists of two chromosomes and therefore a total of four chromatids, is called a bivalent. At a few points, typically three or four, along the bivalent, non-sister chromatids (i.e. one belonging to each of the two chromosomes), break and exchange segments. The place at which one of these breaks occurs is called a chiasma (plural chiasmata).The cytological event (the exchange of corresponding segments of DNA between non-sister chromatids of a homologous pair of chromosomes) explains the genetic observation.
It's true that crossing over is the exchange of reciprocal DNA parts between homologous chromosomes.
translocation
the answer is TRANSLOCATION.
translocation
An exchange of chromosome segments is called a translocation. In genetics, it refers to a chromosome abnormality caused by rearrangement of parts between nonhomologous chromosomes.
cross over
The exchange of segments is called translocation.
Translocation is when nonhomologous chromosomes exchange segments, like when chromosome 1 exchanges parts with chromosome 5. Inversion is when broken segments of the chromosome is inserted backwards.
DNA or genens these are the segments of the chromosome.
breaks off and attach to adjacent chromatids on the homologous chromosome
a. crossing over b. independent assortment or c. random fertilization
In prophase 1 crossing over causes chromosome segments to exchange and leads to new combinations of genes
It would appear you are speaking of crossing over which takes place in Prophase I of meiosis.
