Question

Possible Effects of Chromosome Rearrangements Match each term below with its possible evolutionary consequence to review how chromosome rearrangements could play a role This change could result in a gene's ending up closer to a promoter, and thus being expressed at a novel time or in a novel tissue. Repeated events of this type could lead to gene families-sets of related genes with slightly different functions. Could keep genes and their association intact through crossover suppression. Could lead to speciation because of infertility of heterozygotes, a form of reproductive isolation. Movement of elements could cause novel mutations, some of which may be beneficial.
