Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The light chains are encoded by either kappa or lambda. These genes consists of different segments that encoded for the variable and constant domain. They are
A
C-J-V
B
V-J-C
C
J-V-C
D
None
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The light-chain variable region is composed of only two gene segments: V and J. Genes for the V and J segments of light chains are located on chromosome 2 in humans.

Detailed explanation-2: -To make an antibody molecule, a VL gene segment recombines with a JL gene segment to produce a DNA sequence coding for the V region of a light chain, and a VH gene segment recombines with a D and a JH gene segment to produce a DNA sequence coding for the V region of a heavy chain.
