The difference between deletion duplication inversion and translocation?

Deletions are a loss of all or part of a chromosome. Duplications produce extra copies of parts of a chromosome. Inversions reverse the direction of parts of a chromosome. Translocations occur when part of one chromosome breaks off and attaches to another.


Translocation and transpiration?

There is a direct relationship between translocation and transpiration. Translocation refers to movement of sugars which are dissolved in the phloem while transpiration refers to the process through which water is moved from the roots to the stomata through the xylem.
