The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the number of genes on chromosome I and chromosome Y, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Chromosomes - In humans, there are 23 pairs of chromosomes, which include 22 pairs of autosomes and 1 pair of sex chromosomes (X and Y). ### Step 2: Identify Chromosome I and Chromosome Y - Chromosome I is the largest chromosome in humans, while chromosome Y is the smallest. ### Step 3: Determine the Number of Genes - Chromosome I has approximately **2968 genes**. - Chromosome Y has approximately **231 genes**. ### Step 4: Fill in the Blanks - Therefore, we can fill in the blanks as follows: - A = 2968 (for chromosome I) - B = 231 (for chromosome Y) ### Step 5: Choose the Correct Option - Now, we need to look at the provided options to find the correct one: - Option 1: 4968123 (incorrect) - Option 2: 4986123 (incorrect) - Option 3: 8962231 (incorrect) - Option 4: 2968231 (correct) ### Final Answer - Chromosome I has **2968** genes and chromosome Y has **231** genes. The correct option is **2968231**. ---
