Respuesta :

The answer to the problem is Translocation. Hope that helps

The right answer is translocation.

Translocation is a genetic mutation characterized by the reciprocal exchange of chromosomal material between non-homologous chromosomes, that is, not belonging to the same pair.

If the translocation does not lead to a loss of chromosomal material and thus to genes, it is qualified as balanced or balanced.
