Crossing-over occurs between non-sister chromatids, since (prior to crossing-over) sister chromatids are genetically identical (i.e. one is a duplication of the other). Therefore, if sister chromatids underwent a cross-over, no genetic variation would occur.
When there is crossing over, then non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes cross and twist at the chiasmata, where genetic materials are exchanged. At each if the chiasmata, the chromatids may break and rejoin with another sister chromatid and hence 'crossing over'. So basically, the 'ends' chromatids of the chromosome cross each other, then the chromatids are torn apart from each other.
Centromere connects the sister Chromatids
Yes they are attached at the centromere and remain identicle until crossing over occurs in prophase 1 of meosis
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 dont over cuz they dont look it up lmfao

Nonsister Chromatids Cross-over in Prophase 1
When there is crossing over, then non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes cross and twist at the chiasmata, where genetic materials are exchanged. At each if the chiasmata, the chromatids may break and rejoin with another sister chromatid and hence 'crossing over'. So basically, the 'ends' chromatids of the chromosome cross each other, then the chromatids are torn apart from each other.
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.
Centromere connects the sister Chromatids
In anaphase I the sister chromatids remain attached, while in anaphase II the sister chromatids separate.
Sister Chromatids separate during anaphase.
They pull the sister chromatids apart.

Crossing over results in nonidentical sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes.
