These two amounts are Equal.
In late anaphase and G1 of interphase, a chromosome is unreplicated and consists of a single DNA double helix. A replicated chromosome contains two identical DNA double helices.
Sister chromatids are two copies of a replicated chromosome. Chromosomes occur in pairs. These will be separated in anaphase of mitosis and one chromatid pair will be left for each daughter cell.
Each human chromosome is replicated in about 100 sections. These sections are 10,000 nucleotides in terms of their length.
At the beginning of telophase I, each half of the cell has a complete haploid set of chromosomes, but each chromosome is still composed of two sister chromatids. Cytokinesis usually occurs simultaneously with telophase I, forming two haploid daughter cells. No chromosome replication occurs between the end of meiosis I and the beginning of meiosis II, as the chromosomes are already replicated. In telophase II, the nuclei form and the chromosomes begin decondensing. The meiotic division of one parent cell produces four daughter cells, each with a haploid set of (unreplicated) chromosomes
Interphase is when DNA replication occurs. :)
* the two exact copies of DNA that make up each chromosome.

A replicated chromosome consists of an exact copy (assuming no mutations) of the original chromosome, which is composed of DNA and proteins called histones.
