Homologous chromosomes (also called homologs or homologues) are chromosome pairs of approximately the same length, centromere position, staining pattern, with genes for the same characteristics at corresponding loci.
In meiosis I, the chromosomes are duplicated first then the homologous pairs separate together. Sections of the DNA can sometimes cross over between homologous pairs.
Later, during Meiosis II, these pairs are separated into the gametes with only one of each pair.
If you said there was only one chromosome, you are thinking of the final result of meiosis.

How can you use the word chromosome in a sentence?
A chromosome is a structure within a cell that contains genetic information. Damage to a chromosome may lead to a mutation in the daughter cells.
What is meiosis associated with?
Sexual reproduction took me a while 2 figure it out 2
What is a chromatid?
A chromatid is one half of a chromosome at a stage of the cell cycle when the chromosome contains two molecules of DNA.A chromatid is like a twin; you can only use the term when there are two of them!Before DNA replicates, each chromosome has only one molecule of DNA. After replication of the DNA, there are two DNA molecules in each chromosome. These become visible under a light microscope when the chromosomes condense during prophase of the next division.Each chromosome then looks like an X. The left side of the X contains one DNA molecule (together with proteins) and the right side contains the other. Each half of the chromosome is a chromatid. At anaphase of the division, the two chromatids are pulled apart. From then on they are no longer referred to as chromatids, but as daughter-chromosomes.
What does meiosis produces haploid gametes mean?
Gametes are haploid.EDIT:Meiosis produces four haploid cells after Telophase II and cytokinesis.But he/she is right. Gametes are haploid cells.
When a chromosome divides one sister chromatid goes to each what cell?
Daughter

Can you use the Word Chromosomes in a sentence?

What is the chromosome number in the daughter cell?
The chromosome number for daughter cells resulting from mitosis is the same as the parent cell.

What caused anomaly when one daughter cells gets two copies of a chromosome?
The process by which a daughter cell accidentally get two copies of a chromosome is called "nondisjuction".
What Maintains the chromosome number in the daughter nuclei?
Mitosis
How abnormal number of any chromosome gets into gamete?
That happens in Ana phase.When a chromosome is not split in centromere,a chromosome fully moves to a daughter cell.
Nature of daughter cells in mitosis?
the daughter cells are similar to the mother cell and they have the same chromosome no.

Why can a man who has sex-linked disorder pass the disorder to his daughter but not to his sons?
Sex-linked disorders are passed on the X chromosome. The man supplies the Y chromosome to his sons so the disorder cannot be passed on to the sons. But the man gives his daughter an X chromosome so the disorder can be passed on to her.
