Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
[Image showing the four types of chromosomes: Metacentric, Sub-metacentric, Acrocentric, and Telocentric]Metacentric: Middle centromere (iii).Acrocentric: Near the end, very short arm (i).Sub-metacentric: Slightly away from middle (iv).Telocentric: Terminal centromere (ii).Sequence: (a)-(iii), (b)-(i), (c)-(iv), (d)-(ii).
