The correct answer is:

D) The ends of linear chromosomes

Telomeres are repetitive DNA sequences located at the ends of linear chromosomes. They protect the chromosomes from degradation, prevent the loss of important genetic information during DNA replication, and play a role in maintaining chromosomal stability.
