the answer is c Translocation occurs when a part of one chromosome breaks off and attaches itself to another chromosome. It is, therefore, a chromosomal mutation.

The correct answer is letter D, transmutation. This is the process wherein a particular organism evolves through time having changes within its chromosomal make-up, ultimately leading to stronger and survival worthy organisms that will thrive through time.
