The answer should be option B and C "It contains 46 chromosomes, Each strand contains chromosomes from one parent." When a baby is made it receives 24 chromosomes from the mother and 24 chromosomes from the father in equal will have 46 chromosomes. It's also true that each strand contains chromosomes from one of the parents.

Hope this helps.
