The correct Answer is:
To answer the question "Diagrammatic representation of karyotype of a species is called," we will analyze the options provided and determine the correct answer step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Karyotype**: - A karyotype refers to the complete set of chromosomes in an organism, including their number, size, shape, and arrangement. It is a way to visualize the chromosomal composition of a species. 2. **Evaluating the Options**: - **Option A: Cladogram**: - A cladogram is a diagram that shows the evolutionary relationships among various biological species based on similarities and differences in their physical or genetic characteristics. This does not represent karyotypes. - **Conclusion**: Incorrect. - **Option B: Dendrogram**: - A dendrogram is a tree-like diagram that represents the arrangement of the clusters produced by hierarchical clustering. It shows relationships but not specifically karyotypes. - **Conclusion**: Incorrect. - **Option C: Ideogram**: - An ideogram is a graphical representation of the structure of chromosomes, showing their morphology, including banding patterns, which can be used to represent the karyotype of a species. - **Conclusion**: Correct. - **Option D: More than one option is correct**: - Since we have determined that only option C is correct, this option is not valid. - **Conclusion**: Incorrect. 3. **Final Answer**: - The correct answer is **Option C: Ideogram**. An ideogram is the diagrammatic representation of the karyotype of a species.
