Inversion
A DNA rearrangement where a sequence of nucleotides is in the reverse orientation relative to the rest of the molecule.
Inversion A chromosomal rearrangement in which a segment of chromosome is turned end for end. A pericentric inversion includes the centromere, a paracentric inversion does not.
Inversion
A segment of a chromosome may become turned around forming an inversion.
This can cause altered gene activity, a loss of crossing-over, or a duplication/deletion if crossing-over does occur.
Inversion A nucleotide sequence whose normal order is reversed in a gene or in a chromosome.
Inversion
The term introduccd by Sturtevant (1926) for the reversal of the linear sequence of the genes in a segment of a chromosome.

inversion A turning inward or inside out, as in embryogenesis of sponges; also, reversal in order of genes or reversal of a chromosome segment.
involucre Whorl of bracts that subtend a flower or an inflorescence.
Thermal inversions are local occurrences of polluted air being trapped close to the surface. This is a major problem in cities located in a valley, like the Phoenix (Arizona) metropolitan area.
For human inversions, the results of the analyses revealed a total of 124 BACs (2.5%) mapping to two or more sites on the same chromosome, of which 81 (65%) mapped to one of 27 distinct human inversion sites, ...
The movements of inversion and eversion of the foot, together with the minute changes in form by which it is applied to the ground or takes hold of an object in climbing, etc.
Applied to a chromatid or chromosome with two centromeres , such as arises in an inversion heterozygote as a result of crossing-over between a normal and an inverted segment that does not include the centromere.

We don't absolutely know for sure, but we suspect that [there was] a series of inversions of big chunks of DNA on the Y chromosome. We think [this] made it unable to pair up or align precisely and accurately with the X chromosome.
In music, a transformation is any operation or process that may be applied to a musical variable, usually a set or tone row in twelve tone music, such as transposition, inversion, multiplication, retrograde, or rotation and combinations thereof.

Dextrose and levulose are obtained by the inversion of cane sugar or sucrose, and hence called invert sugar. Dextrose is chiefly obtained by the action of heat and acids on starch, and hence called also starch sugar.

Based on the results obtained so far, Charbonneau suggests that GAs can and should find use in other difficult problems in astrophysics, in particular inverse problems such as Doppler imaging and helioseismic inversions.

Or maybe it's a circumstance where I have the genes in the order ABC and you have them in the order of ACB because you have an inversion in that. Those don't have to be pathological.
Inversion Occurs where a chromosome breaks in two and becomes reattached in reverse orientation. This may or may not affect gene function.
