2. Duplication - Extra copies of part of a chromosome are made.
3. Translocation - Part of a chromosome breaks off and attaches to another chromosome.
4. Inversion - Sections of a chromosome are reversed.

So, the correct matching is:

• Deletion - Part of the chromosome is lost.
• Duplication - Extra copies of part of a chromosome are made.
• Translocation - Part of a chromosome breaks off and attaches to another chromosome.
• Inversion - Sections of a chromosome are reversed.
