Detailed explanation-1: -Chromosomal mutation examples include chromosome deletion, duplication, inversion, and translation.

Detailed explanation-2: -A translocation occurs when a piece of one chromosome breaks off and attaches to another chromosome. This type of rearrangement is described as balanced if no genetic material is gained or lost in the cell. If there is a gain or loss of genetic material, the translocation is described as unbalanced . Deletions.

Detailed explanation-3: -The four main types of structural chromosomal aberrations are deletion, duplication, inversion, and translocation. Deletions occur when a portion of the chromosome is deleted, or taken out, which can make that chromosome less functional.

Detailed explanation-4: -There are 5 types of chromosomal alterations: deletions, duplications, insertions, inversions, and translocations. Point mutations occur at a single site within the DNA; examples of these include silent mutations, missense mutations, and nonsense mutations.

Detailed explanation-5: -A change in chromosome structure and content caused by translocation is a translocation mutation. Many genes may be transferred between chromosomes. Such translocation mutations can cause disorders of growth, development, and function of the body’s cells and systems. Human cell nuclei have 23 pairs of chromosomes.
