Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Inversion of a section of a chromosome can lead to a disruption of the normal sequence of genes, potentially causing loss or alteration of their function. This can result in genetic disorders or developmental abnormalities. It is unlikely that an extra copy of the chromosome or circular configuration would occur as a result of inversion, and deleting the inverted section could potentially cause further disruption.
