Dennis Good · Answer 1

Answer: C) Deletion, Nondisjunction, Replication, and Transformation

Explanation: All of these can cause genetic abnormalities because they all alter a cell which can lead to problems.

Edward Potter · Answer 2

The correct option is C which is, "Deletion, Nondisjunction, Replication, and Transformation".

Explanation: Deletion is the process when one or more nucleotide is deleted from the genetic code in DNA. Nondisjunction is the failure to separate the homologous chromosomes during meiosis. While transformation is the addition of extra nucleotide in normal DNA. And rapid replication also leads to errors in DNA replication. All these processes lead to genetic abnormalities.
