The correct Answer is:
To identify the correct match between types of chromosomes and their descriptions, we will analyze each type of chromosome and its corresponding position of the centromere. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Chromosome Types**: - **Metacentric Chromosome**: The centromere is located at the center of the chromosome, resulting in two arms of equal length. - **Submetacentric Chromosome**: The centromere is slightly off-center, creating one arm that is longer than the other. - **Acrocentric Chromosome**: The centromere is located near one end of the chromosome, resulting in one very short arm and one long arm. - **Telocentric Chromosome**: The centromere is located at the very end of the chromosome, resulting in one arm. 2. **Match Each Type with Its Description**: - **Metacentric (A)**: Centromere at the middle (3). - **Submetacentric (B)**: Centromere slightly away from the middle (4). - **Acrocentric (C)**: Centromere almost near the tip (2). - **Telocentric (D)**: Centromere at the tip (1). 3. **Final Matching**: - A (Metacentric) - 3 (At the middle) - B (Submetacentric) - 4 (Slightly away from the middle) - C (Acrocentric) - 2 (Almost near the tip) - D (Telocentric) - 1 (At the tip) ### Summary of Matches: - **Metacentric**: At the middle (3) - **Submetacentric**: Slightly away from the middle (4) - **Acrocentric**: Almost near the tip (2) - **Telocentric**: At the tip (1)
