Answer 2

The correct answer will be inversion.

Step-by-step explanation:

Inversion is a type of genetic mutation in which sequence of the DNA is flipped to 180° in a chromosome.

This mutation takes place when a sequence of DNA breaks and reattaches to the same chromosome after rotation of 180 reversing the order of the sequence.

When sequence shows:

Normal : ATTGCATC

after inversion : ATACGTTC

Bold letters shows inverted sequence as TTGCAT is flipped or reversed to 180° and is read as TACGTT.

If inversion occurs on a gene, it can produce lethal effects on cell but if not then it could have no effect on somatic cells.

Thus, inversion is the correct answer.
