Which of the four types of chromosomal rearrangements

is/arelikely to result in altered linkage relationships of the

organism'sgenes? Explain your answer.

The chromosomal rearrangement may be defined as the change in the chromosome structure due to some mutations. Four different types of chromosomal rearrangement are as follows:

Deletion : This may be defined as the rearrangement in which the some parts or the entire chromosome gets deleted in the individual.

Duplication: In this type of chromosomal rearrangement, the specific part or the entire gene of the chromosome gets multiplied or duplicated.

Inversion: In the chromosomal rearrangement, the part of the chromosome breaks and reseal but in opposite orientation.

Translocation: This type of the chromosomal rearrangement may be defined as in which the part of the chromosome break down and reseal on the other chromosome.
