Final answer:

When a chromosome undergoes a deletion mutation, information is lost.

Step-by-step explanation:

A deletion mutation in a chromosome involves the loss of a segment of DNA, resulting in the loss of several to hundreds of genes from the chromosome. This mutation causes information to be lost.
