A useful analogy would be the address - 'Gene for brown eyes' is the name, '23rd gene' is the house number, 'Chromosome 4' is the street. (these are not necessarily true for this gene)

locus - precise, exact place, position. (Compare with location). Please note that locus is a very obvious borrowing from Latin and unless one really need to use the word, it may sound pompous in English.

the best locus for a gene on the short arm of chromsome 17 in the region of 4 on bands 1-22 would be the following?a. 17q41-22 b. 4q 17 1-22c.4p 17 1-22 d. 17p 4 1-22. Thank you
The specific term is gene locus. If the exact location is known then there is more specific terminology that refers to the chromosome number whether the locus is on the short (p) or long (q) arm of the chromosome and it's specific location based on band and sub-band location.
Gene locus is a specific location on an allele.
The position is called locus (plural: loci).
