Solution

The correct option is A Homology with functional gene
Pseudogenes are usually characterized by a combination of homology to a known gene and loss of some functionality. That is, although every pseudogene has a DNA sequence that is similar to some functional gene, they are usually unable to produce functional final protein products.
So, the correct answer is 'Homology with functional gene.'
