Question

An organism described as 2n=4 has the chromosomes below with genes indicated by letters and centromeres indicated by periods. Select the BEST description of the chromosome aberration present in this organism.I.AB.DGHJ II. AB.DG III. NPV.TQZ IV. NPV.TQZHJSelect one:a. Nonreciprocal Translocationb. Pericentric Inversionc. Interstitial Deletiond. Tandem Duplicatione. Robertsonian Translocationf. Reciprocal Translocationg. Paracentric Inversionh. Reverse Tandem Duplicationi. Terminal Deletion

Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

The observed aberration can be clarified as pursues: either the two ordinary pair of chromosomes were NPV.TQZ and AB.DGHJ, or NPV.TQZHJ and AB.DG.

In either case, HJ has moved from one of the chromosomes of a couple to a non-homologous chromosome of another pair. Along these lines, this is a case of Non-equal Translocation.
