The image below represents which of the following mutations a) translocation chromosomal mutationb) inversion chromosomal mutationc) non-disjunction chromosomal mutationd) substitution point mutation

The correct answer from the choices given for the question: The image below represents which of the following mutations:, would be, B: Inversion chromosomal mutation.

Explanation:

The reason for this answer being the correct one comes from the definition itself of this type of mutation. The inversion chromosomal mutation is defined precisely as a whole set of genetic information that is reversed from its original position. This happens when the chromosomal set is broken off from the main chain and is re-arranged in order, contrary to the original order. A lot of these mutations happen in humans and there is some evidence that this type of mutations may be leading to infertility and higher cases of miscarriages.
