The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the features belonging to a specific syndrome, we will analyze each feature step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Features**: The question provides four distinct features: - (i) Furrowed tongue - (ii) Broad palm with a crease - (iii) Physical, psychomotor, and mental retardation - (iv) Short stature with a small round head 2. **Understanding the Features**: - **Furrowed Tongue**: This is a common physical characteristic seen in certain genetic syndromes. - **Broad Palm with Crease**: This refers to a specific hand morphology often associated with genetic conditions. - **Physical, Psychomotor, and Mental Retardation**: These are developmental delays and intellectual disabilities that can be associated with various syndromes. - **Short Stature with Small Round Head**: This describes a typical physical appearance seen in certain genetic disorders. 3. **Connecting Features to a Syndrome**: - The combination of these features is indicative of a specific genetic condition. - The presence of a furrowed tongue, broad palm with a single transverse palmar crease, and the developmental delays points towards a well-known genetic disorder. 4. **Identifying the Syndrome**: - The features listed are characteristic of **Down Syndrome** (also known as Trisomy 21). - Down Syndrome is caused by the presence of an extra chromosome 21, which leads to the physical and intellectual characteristics described. 5. **Conclusion**: - Based on the analysis of the features provided, the answer to the question is **Down Syndrome**. ### Final Answer: The following features belong to **Down Syndrome**.
