Vedclass · Answer

(B) The given diagram represents a chromosome. The structure labeled as $X$ at the ends of the chromosome arms is the satellite,which is associated with a secondary constriction. However,in many standard textbook diagrams of this type,the structure at the very tip is often identified as a satellite,and the constriction itself is the secondary constriction. Looking at the options provided,'Secondary constriction' is the most appropriate biological term related to the region near the satellite in this context. The primary constriction is the centromere.

Chromosomes	Position of centromere
$A$. Metacentric	$1$. At the tip
$B$. Submetacentric	$2$. Almost near the tip
$C$. Acrocentric	$3$. At the middle
$D$. Telocentric	$4$. Slightly away from the middle
