- CA-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III
- DA-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV
Correct answer
B. A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
Step-by-step solution
Down's syndrome is due to presence of an additional copy of chromosome number 21. Klinefelter's syndrome is caused due to presence of an additional copy of X-chromosome. -Thalassemia is controlled by two closely linked genes on chromosome 16 of each parent. -Thalassemia is controlled by a single gene HBB on chromosome 11 of each parent.
