What occurs when a segment breaks of chromosome breaks off and reattaches to another chromosome?
translocation
What happens during the Translocation mutation?
Translocation in the study of DNA involves the synthesis of proteins from ribosome structures. It starts when the mRNA leaves the nucleus (end of transcirption) and moves to the cytoplasm. From there a tRNA molecule carrying the corresponding amino acid for each codon on the mRNA forms the corresponding chain of proteins. This process continues until all of the codons on the mRNA are read by the tRNA. Each time a protein is bound to the tail end of the mRNA, an amino acid is added to the end of the link. By the end, a long chain of proteins has been constructed, based on the original DNA blueprint for that particular protein to be built. in shorter terms, a chromosome piece breaks off and reattaches to a non-homologous chromosome
What results if a fragment of a chromosome breaks off and then reattaches to the original chromosome at the same place but in the reverse direction?
an inversion.
What is it called when a fragment of a chromosome breaks off and then reattaches to the original chromosome at the same place but in the reverse direction?
an inversion
What is a loss of complete chromosome called?
deletion-occurs when an end of a chromosome breaks off or when two simultaneous breaks lead to the loss of an internal segment
What is the DNA chromosome called that breaks off and reattaches to a homologous chromosome that is paired up in meiosis?
This is a type of mutation called translocation.
If a segment of a chromosome breaks away and joins to a non-homologous chromosomes what is it called?
a translocation
What happens during translocation?
When part of one chromosome breaks off and attaches to another.
