Question

Match List-I with List-II:

List-I	List-II
A. Metacentric chromosome	I. Chromosome has a terminal centromere
B. Sub-metacentric chromosome	II. Middle centromere forming two equal arms of chromosome
C. Acrocentric chromosome	III. Centromere is slightly away from the middle of chromosome resulting into two unequal arms
D. Telocentric chromosome	IV. Centromere is situated close to its end forming one extremely short and one very long arm

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. A-II, B-I, C-IV, D-III
• B. A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III
• C. A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV
• D. A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

The correct pairings are:
A. Metacentric chromosome - II. A chromosome with a centromere located in the middle, resulting in two equal arms.
B. Sub-metacentric chromosome - III. A chromosome with a centromere positioned slightly off-center, creating two unequal arms.
C. Acrocentric chromosome - IV. A chromosome with a centromere situated near its end, producing one extremely short arm and one very long arm.
D. Telocentric chromosome - I. A chromosome with a terminal centromere.
Consequently, the correct selection is (4): A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I.
