1. Changes to the number of chromosomes
... Changes to the structure of a chromosome will involve changes to the number of genes present or to the sequence (order) of these genes on the chromosome. These changes are most likely to happen when chromatids break at chiasmata and do not cross over and rejoin in the normal way. There are 4 ways ch ...
