Chromatin is intertwinted mass of fine thread-like structure made of DNA and protein. During cell division (mitosis and meiosis), chromatin condenses to form thicker rod-like structures called chromosomes. Each chromosome consists of two similar halves called chromatids. Formation of chromosomes having two similar halves or chromatids is meant for equitable distribution of chromatin which is hereditary material.
What else can I help you with?
How many chromatids does a chromosome typically have when a karyotype is taken?
When a karyotype is taken, a chromosome typically has two chromatids.
How are chromatid and a duplicated chromosome are related?
Chromosomes and chromatids are related in that one is the duplicate of another. A chromatid comes about when chromosomes are duplicated. It holds replicated DNA of every single chromosome that is joined.
How many chromatids have one chromosome?
Two (2). Before DNA replication, each chromosome is composed of a single chromatid. After replication, but before separation of the chromatids during anaphase, this is true.
There are 4 chromatids in a?
A chromatid is one half of a duplicated chromosome, so typically there are 2 chromatids in a chromosome.
Do sister chromatids have the same alleles within a chromosome?
Yes, sister chromatids have the same alleles within a chromosome.
What is the term for the two sets of chromatids?
A chromosome pair, as in a pair of Chromosome 15, or a pair of Chromosome 5. Others have said Tetrad - Pls stand-by.
What two identical bodies make up a duplicated chromosome?
Somatic cell chromosome is made of two identical chromatids
One half of a duplicated chromosome?
A duplicated chromosome consists of two identical sister chromatids joined at the centromere. Therefore, one half of a duplicated chromosome refers to one of these sister chromatids, which contains a copy of the genetic material from the original chromosome.
Each chromosome consists of 2 what?
Each chromosome consists of two sister chromatids, which are identical copies of the chromosome connected at a region called the centromere. During cell division, the sister chromatids separate and each is passed on to a daughter cell.
How many chromatids does each chromosome have before S-phase?
There are two chromatids for each chromosome before the S-phase. The S-phase is wherein DNA of each chromosome is replicated.
What is the next step after chromosome duplication?
is it two chromatids or spindles
Point on a chromosome where chromatids are attached?
Centromere
