The figure below shows Chromosome 5 and Chromosome 10 after the
transposition event.
A

D E
Chr. 5
F
G
Chr. 10
a. If Chromosome 10 did not previously have any copies of the transposable
element, how would you classify this element (i.e. what type of
transposable element is it)? Explain your reasoning.
b. Nonallelic homologous recombination occurs between Chromosome 5 and
Chromosome 10 at the transposable element, resulting in a reciprocal
translocation. Draw what the chromosomes will look like after
recombination, including all labels shown in the figure.
c. Will this chromosomal rearrangement cause gene dosage effects in the
cell in which the recombination event occurred? Explain your reasoning.
