This is called genetic recombination or crossing over. It results in the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes during meiosis, leading to genetic diversity in offspring.
To put this answer as simply as possible, an organism's genotype can change due to either a random mutation in the DNA/chromosomes or the insertion of DNA from one organism into the DNA of another organism.
Mutations are random nucleotide alterations such as copying errors or changes induced by external mutagens. In contrast, genetic recombination is performed by the cell during the preparation of gametes (sperm, egg, pollen) which are used for sexual reproduction
mutations
so after it changes it is called a gene

A mutation.
30% of people or doctors use genetic testing because of the change in chromosomes
A mutation
A change in the genetic material of an organism.
mutation means change in genetic structure..where as crossover means interchanging the genetic structure of two or more chromosomes..
Sudden genetic change in the DNA of an organism called mutations.
During crossing-over, the genetic material from homologous chromosomes is swapped. This leads to a recombination of the genes. Simple example: Originally - ABCD alleles on one and abcd on the other. After crossing over - ABCd and abcD This creates offspring with non-parental phenotypes (traits), which are known as recombinants.

it is called a mutations
change in phenotype of bacteria caused by the presece of foreign genetic material
