normal
Satellite $DNA$
A
is classified in many categories such as microsatellites, minisatellites, etc. on the basis of base composition length of segments and number of repetitive units.
B
normally does not code for any protein.
C
shows polymorphism.
D
All of the above
Solution
Satellite $DNA$ is a portion of $DNA$ consisting of short, repeating sequences of nucleotide pairs near the region of the centromere. Normally it does not code for any protein but shows polymorphisms. It is classified in many categories like micro- or minisatellites based on the composition, length of segments and number of repetitive units.
