Open in App
Solution
The correct option is C satellite
The non-staining secondary constrictions at a constant location in few chromosomes that gives the appearance of a small fragment is called satellite. Satellite DNA consists of highly repetetive sequences which do not code for any protein.
The primary constriction in every chromosome is called centromere which contains disc shaped structures called kinetochores.
Telomere is a region of repetitive nucleotide sequences at each end of a chromosome which protects the chromosome.
