Chromosomes of the same size and functions and with the centromere located at the same location are called homologous chromosomes. What if they are not homologous?
It is Homologous chromosomes because they carry thesame genes and homones.
Homologous chromosomes are chromosome pairs, one from each parent, that are similar in length,gene position, and centromere location. The position of the genes on each homologous chromosome is the same, however the genes may contain different alleles.A human karyotype shows the complete set of human chromosomes. Human cells contain 23 pairs of chromosomes for a total of 46. Each chromosome pair represents a set of homologous chromosomes. In males, the sex chromosomes X and Y are homologues. In females, both X chromosomes are homologues.

A pair of chromosomes is called a "chromosome pair."Generally, the two chromosomes in a pair are "homologous chromosomes."An individual form of a gene is called an "allele." (For example: if someone has genotype "Aa", they have two different alleles, "A" and "a")
The centromere is found in the middle of two sister chromatids. The sister chromatids are connected by the centromere in order to form a chromosome.

they derive from a common ancestor. a homology is a "structural correspondence".Homology among proteins and DNA is often concluded on the basis of sequence similarity, especially in bioinformatics. For example, in general, if two or more genes have highly similar DNA sequences, it is likely that they are homologous. But sequence similarity may also arise without common ancestry: short sequences may be similar by chance, and sequences may be similar because both were selected to bind to a particular protein, such as a transcription factor. Such sequences are similar but not homologous.
homologous chromosomes
DNA is always located within the nucleus because it is too big to fit through the pores in the nuclear membrane. DNA is the genetic information that allows our bodies to function. Chromosomes, are sister chromatids attached by a centromere. They contain the genetic material. In fact, each chromatid consists of one long, compacted DNA strand. The chromosomes cannot be visible in a cell however, during cell division in prophase, chromosomes can be seen under a microscope.
Homologous chromosomes are similar in size and in shape and location of the centromere. They carry genes for the same traits. They are different because they carry different versions of some genes. h
Moths and butterflies have a varying number of chromosomal pairs, depending on geographic location and species. The number can be as low as 52 and as high as 320.

the chromosomes are in the merherder region of the cell
