It's a translocation, specifically a balanced translocation.
This process is known as chromosomal crossover or genetic recombination. During meiosis, homologous chromosomes can exchange segments of DNA between each other, resulting in genetic diversity among offspring. This exchange involves the physical swapping of chromosome segments between pair 7 and 15.
During crossing-over, portions of chromatids exchange genetic material with their homologous chromatids. This results in genetic recombination, where genes are shuffled and new combinations of alleles are created, increasing genetic diversity.
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.
Crossing over occurs during meiosis when homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material. This results in the shuffling of genes between chromosomes, creating new combinations of alleles. This process increases genetic diversity by producing offspring with unique genetic profiles.
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
This process is known as chromosomal crossover or genetic recombination. During meiosis, homologous chromosomes can exchange segments of DNA between each other, resulting in genetic diversity among offspring. This exchange involves the physical swapping of chromosome segments between pair 7 and 15.
DNA or genens these are the segments of the chromosome.
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.
a. crossing over b. independent assortment or c. random fertilization
During crossing-over, portions of chromatids exchange genetic material with their homologous chromatids. This results in genetic recombination, where genes are shuffled and new combinations of alleles are created, increasing genetic diversity.
