  1. Minor changes at gene level are described as
    1. Point mutations
    2. Chromosomal mutations
    3. Reverse mutations
    4. Forward mutations
Correct Option: A

Gene mutation or point mutation is the change in expression of a gene caused by change in number, sequence and types of nucleotides. A mutation from a wild gene type to a new type is called forward mutation. Reversal of mutated gene to wild type is reverse mutation. Chromosomal mutations are changes in the morphology of chromosomes.
