They are similar in size shape , position of centromere and genes .
Homologous chromosomes are similar in the pattern they are stained, their lengths, and most importantly they have genes of the for a certain characteristics in the same area.

Are sister chromatids or homologous chromosomes more similar?
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.
What best describes chromosomes that contain genes for the same characteristics?
Chromosomes that have the same sequence of genes are called homologous chromosomes.
Humans are a diploid species what does this say about their chromosomes?
They have homologous chromosomes
The homologous pairs are represented by similar?
size and shape
How do sister chromatids differ from homolohous chromosomes?
Homologous chromosomes is a pair made of a paternal and maternal chromosomes. But sister chromatid is either pairs of paternal or maternal chromosomes
What do of homologous chromosomes have in common?
they are made up of similar chromosomes
What are chromosomes that have similar genetic information called?
Chromosomes that are similar are called homologous chromosomes. Chromosomes that have similar paired genes are called homolegous chromosomes. These copies have the same loci. These loci provide points along each chromosome that enable a pair of chromosomes to align.
Are sister chromatids or homologous chromosomes more similar?
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.
What do you call chromosomes that have similar paired genes?
homologous
What is a pair of similar chromosomes with the same genes in the same locations?
Homologous pairs of chromosomes carry the same genes. These chromosomes are found in the same loci and contain the same centromere position.
What best describes chromosomes that contain genes for the same characteristics?
Chromosomes that have the same sequence of genes are called homologous chromosomes.
Humans are a diploid species what does this say about their chromosomes?
They have homologous chromosomes
How do sister chromatids differ from homologous chromosomes?
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.
What are the chromosomes that carry the same sets of genes?
Homologous Chromosomes.- for fact.
The homologous pairs are represented by similar?
size and shape
Two chromosomes that are the same size shape and contain similar genetics information is called?
Homologous Chromosomes
How do sister chromatids differ from homolohous chromosomes?
Homologous chromosomes is a pair made of a paternal and maternal chromosomes. But sister chromatid is either pairs of paternal or maternal chromosomes
