Options
- AA-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I
- BA-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II
- CA-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I
- DA-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
Correct answer
B. A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II
Step-by-step solution
Centromere is the primary constriction that holds the two sister chromatids of a chromosome together. Thus, A matches with IV. Kinetochores are disc-shaped structures present on the sides of the primary constriction (centromere) where spindle fibres attach during cell division. Thus, B matches with III. Secondary constriction is a non-staining region present at a constant location on some chromosomes. Thus, C matches with I. Satellite is the small fragment-like appearance of the chromosome located beyond the second
