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)

∙ 10y agothe 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.
A gene locus refers to the specific position of a gene on a chromosome, while an allele refers to different versions of the same gene that can exist at a particular locus. In other words, a gene locus is the physical location of a gene on a chromosome, while an allele is a specific variant or form of that gene found at that locus.
The position is called locus (plural: loci).
