a cromosome
The centromere. It where the two identical sister chromatids come closest in contact.
1 centromere for every pair of chromatids
The structure that holds two chromatids together is called a centromere. It is a region of the chromosome where the two sister chromatids are attached and where the microtubules of the spindle fibers attach during cell division.
Two sister chromatids that are connected by a centromere are identical to one another. They are duplicate copies of a chromatin.
The sister chromatids are held together by the centromeres. Each chromosome is made up of two sister chromatids.
Bacterial chromosomes
The cell structure that joins two sister chromatids into one single chromosome is called the centromere. This is at the center of the sister chromatids.
Sister chromatids - two copies of the same DNA joined at the centromere.
The two identical portions that are attached by their centromere are known as sister chromatids. They are produced during DNA replication and are separated during cell division.
All tetrads contain four chromatids. Each "leg" is one chromatid.2Tetrad = 2 homologous chromosomes1 homologous chromosome has 2 chromatids joined together by a centromere.That means that there are four chromatids in a tetrad
Chromatids are held together at the center by a structure called the centromere. This region contains specific DNA sequences to which proteins bind to physically connect the two sister chromatids. The centromere plays a critical role in ensuring accurate segregation of chromatids during cell division.
Sister chromatids are those replicated from the same chromosome whereas non-sister chromatids may be found in meiosis (particularly metaphase II) where paternal and maternal chromatids line up and eventually separate at the metaphase plate.
