Answer:

Mutation (Translocation)

Explanation:

Many at times, changes occur in the genetic material. These changes alter the sequence of the genes in the genome. These changes are called MUTATION. Mutation is any change, whether small or large, in the genetic sequence of a DNA. Mutation is of different types depending on how and it occurs.

When the change occurs in a manner in which chromosomal segment breaks off and is reattached to another different chromosome, it is called TRANSLOCATION MUTATION.
