    They are homologous meaning they have the same genes in the same order but the actual sequences at some gene loci are slightly different, they are alleles.

    so the answer is A: they contian different alleles for the same trait

    homologous means both of them have same genes in the same order but the actual sequences at some gene loci are slightly different, they are alleles. the two chromosomes that make up a homologous pair differ as they can contain different alleles for the same trait.
