2. What happens in a deletion chromosome mutation?
- A section of genes is deleted from the chromosome resulting in a shorter chromosome

- A section of nucleotides are deleted from a gene.

- One amino acid is changed so the protein may still be functional depending on the role of that amino acid in the final protein
- One amino acid is changed so the protein will be shorter and not function
