Detailed explanation-1: -Homologous chromosomes have genes for the same traits.
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: The correct answer is option C. The chromosomes in a homologous pair originate from both parents of the offspring.
Detailed explanation-3: -The chromosomes in a homologous pair each have the same genes in the same order, but there may be variation between them, resulting in different alleles. Some of the variants in these alleles might have functional implications while others will not.
Detailed explanation-4: -Which of the following statements best describes homologous chromosomes? Chromosomes that have the same genes in the same position and are the same size and shape.
Detailed explanation-5: -In biology, homologous chromosomes are paired chromosomes. They essentially have the same gene sequence, loci (gene position), centromere location, and chromosomal length. Although they may have the same genetic sequence and loci, they may differ in alleles.
