Answer:
may result in the inactivation of chromosomal genes at the insertion site may result in the inactivation of chromosomal genes at the insertion site
Step-by-step explanation:
A transposon is a sequence of the DNA which can change its position on the chromosomes and can insert wherever it wants.
This process of changing the position by the transposons or jumping genes was examined by Barbara Mcclintock and referred this as transposition.
When the DNA is integrated into the DNA, it inactivates the genes at the insertional site and disrupts the function of the gene.
Thus, the selected option is correct.
