Chromosome Mutations
a change in the structure of a chromosome
1. Inversion - a piece of a chromosome breaks and attaches back to itself, but upside down
2. Translocation - a piece of a chromosome breaks and attaches to a non-homologous
chromosome (e.g., a piece of chromosome #3 breaks and attaches to chromosome #9)
3. Duplication - a piece of a chromosome breaks and attaches to its homolog (e.g., a piece of
chromosome #3 breaks and attaches to the other chromosome #3)
, 4. Deletion - a piece of a chromosome breaks and is lost from the chromosome
