I actually have a question this time = w = Please help me! What are possible consequences of chromosomal inversions?

Select all that apply.

No crossing-over occurs during meiosis.

Duplication mutations occur during meiosis.

Deletion mutations occur during meiosis.

Inversion mutations cause reduced fertility.

All the answers EXCEPT 'No crossing-over occurs during meiosis'

Explanation:

With the unlikely possibility of a mutation that causes the inversions of chromosomes during 'crossing-over', the inversions does not necessarily have obvious or visible effects on the individual. The only problem that it has is cause issues with meiosis. The process of crossing over will occur regardless of the order in chromosomes and DNA. But the only problem is that it will result in gametes missing or known as (deleted). We know that Meiosis is related to the cell division of sex cells known as gametes. So if problems arise in meiosis with mutations in crossing over, the chance to conceive a child (off-spring) will also be reduced. And finally because the DNA and inversions (mutations) have occurred, this will continue to duplicate during meiosis. Causing more and more mutations.

Sorry for late reply. Hope this helps!

FUN FACT: Only 2% of the population have these mutations.
