(d) 3.1 billion
Explanation:
Genome size is usually stated as the total number of base pairs; the human genome contains roughly 3.1 billion base pairs organized into 24 distinct, physically separate microscopic units called chromosomes. All genes are arranged linearly along the chromosomes. The complete set of instructions for making an organism is called its genome.
