D.A→3; B→5; C→1; D→2; E→4

Solution

Sol.(d) [Key Concept: Genetic Disorders — Chromosome Locations] Correct matches: A (Sickle-cell anaemia) → 3 (11th chromosome — HBB gene); B (Phenylketonuria) → 5 (12th chromosome — PAH gene); C (Cystic fibrosis) → 1 (7th chromosome — CFTR gene); D (Huntington's disease) → 2 (4th chromosome — HTT gene with CAG repeats); E (Colour blindness) → 4 (X-chromosome — opsin genes). Answer: A→3, B→5, C→1, D→2, E→4 = option (d).
