Sister chromatids are identical while homologous chromosomes are merely similar.They are different because they separate the cells and then they become babies but only the homologous chromosomes do.
sister chromatids
Chromatids condense into an X shape before mitosis. Chromatids are identical strands of chromosomes. After duplication there are 12 chromatids that are in 3 pair of homologous chromosomes.
Homologous chromosomes is a pair made of a paternal and maternal chromosomes. But sister chromatid is either pairs of paternal or maternal chromosomes
Homologous chromosomes
Homologous chromosomes are individual chromosomes inherited from each parent. Sister chromatids are the result of DNA replication, and the are identical.

Sister chromatids are replicated DNA and are identical. Homologous chromosomes are not, as one comes from the mother and the other comes from the father.

Somatic cell chromosome is made of two identical chromatids

They have homologous chromosomes
Crossing over occurs between homologous chromosomes, which are not identical, as one member of each pair of homologous chromosomes comes from the mother, and one member comes from the father. Sister chromatids are identical and crossing over would have no effect.
In anaphase I of meiosis, the homologous pairs of chromosomes separate. Due to DNA replication and crossing over during prophase I, these chromosomes consist of a pair of non-identical sister chromatids. During anaphase II of meiosis, the sister chromatids separate into individual chromosomes.
