What results if a broken chromosomal fragment becomes reattached as an extra segment to a sister or non-sister chromatid? A Duplication B Inversion C Polyploidy D Nondisjunction

Answer :

Answer:

The correct answer is option A "Duplication".

Explanation:

Chromosomal duplication is defined as a type of rearrangement of genetic material at which extra copies of a DNA fragment are created. In this case if a broken chromosomal fragment becomes reattached, this fragment will represent an extra copy, and therefore the resultant genetic material is considered a chromosomal duplication.
