The given diagram shows:
| 1. | Exchange of segments between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes during prophase I of first meiosis. |
| 2. | Exchange of segments between non-sister chromatids of heterologous chromosomes during prophase I of first meiosis. |
| 3. | Reciprocal translocation where there is an exchange of segments between heterologous chromosomes and it is a chromosomal aberration. |
| 4. | Inversion, a chromosome aberration, due to non-disjunction of homologues at first meiosis. |
