Correct answer would be option B.

Homologous chromosomes are those chromosomes that are similar in length, centromere location and, gene position. The position of a gene on each homologous chromosomes are same, however, it may contain different alleles.

One of the homologous pairs of a gene is derived from the mother and other from the father. The different form of the same genes is called as an allele.
