Best answer

Answer: 2. Repetitive DNA

DNA fingerprinting identifies differences in specific regions of DNA called repetitive DNA. These regions, such as satellite DNA, vary in number of repeats from person to person and give individual-specific band patterns.

Polymorphism is the variation they show, not the name of the regions.
