Summary Introduction

To compare:

The structural changes between an inversion and a translocation.

Introduction:

Changes in the structure of the chromosome are another type of “chromosomal mutation”. Various agents that are present in the environment such as radiations, viruses or even few organic chemicals can cause chromosomes to break. Ordinarily when chromosome breaks occur the broken ends reunite to form same sequence of genes. However, sometimes the broken ends do not reunite in the same pattern resulting in various types of “chromosomal mutations”.
