The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks about the genes that are specifically located in the differential region of the Y chromosome. 2. **Identifying Key Terms**: The terms mentioned in the options are: - Autosomal genes - Holandric genes - Completely sex-linked genes - Mutant genes 3. **Defining Holandric Genes**: Holandric genes are those that are located on the Y chromosome and are passed from father to son. These genes are confined to the differential region of the Y chromosome. 4. **Differential Region of Y Chromosome**: The differential region of the Y chromosome refers to the part that is not homologous with the X chromosome. This region does not undergo crossing over during meiosis. 5. **Inheritance Patterns**: Traits located in the differential regions of the X and Y chromosomes exhibit different inheritance patterns compared to autosomal genes. Y-linked traits (holandric traits) are typically expressed only in males. 6. **Conclusion**: Based on the definitions and characteristics discussed, the genes that remain confined to the differential region of the Y chromosome are known as holandric genes. **Final Answer**: The genes that remain confined to the differential region of the Y chromosome are called holandric genes. ---
