WebStructural chromosomal abnormalities result from chromosomal breakage. Normally single breaks are repaired quickly, but if more than one break occurs repair mechanisms may cause random rejoining of the wrong ends. Spontaneous breakage increases with exposure to mutagenic chemicals and ionizing radiation. Webchromosomes caused by mutagen treatments are reported in different plant species (Mukherjee and Datta, 2011; Khanna and Sharma, 2013). Chromosomal fragments occurring in root tip mitotic cells induced irradiations may be due to the change in the molecular constituents of the chromosomes (Sax, 1941). Sharma and Sharma, (1960) …

WebSummaryOne-cell mouse embryos were irradiated with X-rays or neutrons. Analysis of the first, second, and third postradiation mitoses revealed that the yields of structural aberrations increased linearly after exposure to both radiation qualities. For X-rays the aberration frequency decreased from the first to the third mitosis, whereas after neutrons it … WebClassification and relationships of induced chromosomal structual changes.

WebHermann Joseph Muller conducted three experiments in 1926 and 1927 that demonstrated that exposure to x-rays, a form of high-energy radiation, can cause genetic mutations, changes to an organism's genome, particularly in egg and sperm cells. In his experiments, Muller exposed fruit flies () to x-rays, mated the flies, and observed the number of … WebStudy with Quizlet and memorize flashcards containing terms like 1) The most frequently used portal of entry for pathogens is the A) mucous membranes of the respiratory tract.
