I need help with b, c, d

the choices for c) are haploid, diploid or tetraploid 

the choices for d) are same chromosome, a pair of homologus chromosomes, or two different chromosomes 

A population of grasshoppers shows variation in leg size. Leg size is controlled by two alleles at a single
locus: B and b. Grasshoppers with large legs are BB, grasshoppers with medium legs are Bb, and
grasshoppers with small legs are bb.
Pick the phrase that best completes each sentence:
a) Leg size in this grasshopper population is a genetically determined
* trait.
b) The two alleles at this locus ar v[ Select ]
alternative versions of the same gene
homologous chromosomes
the result of recombination during meiosis
c) These grasshoppers are tetrap
two different chromosomes
d) The two alleles at this locus are located on [ Select]
