they're identical because they are the product of replication.

∙ 9y agoThe two sister chromatids that are connected by a centromere are identical to each other. The chromatid made a copy of itself, hence the sister chromatids.

Are the two sister chromatids that are connected by a centromere identical to one another?
Two sister chromatids that are connected by a centromere are identical to one another. They are duplicate copies of a chromatin.
Why do you use non-sister chromatids to demonstrate crossing over?
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.
During the cell cycle when would a chromosome consist of two identical sister chromatids?
During the interphase stage is whereby the chromosome consists of the two identical sister chromatids.
When chromosome become visible at the beginning of cell division what does each chromosome consist of?
each chromosome consists of two identical "sister" chromatids
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 two identical bodies make up a duplicated chromosome?
Somatic cell chromosome is made of two identical chromatids
Are the two sister chromatids that are connected by a centromere identical to one another?
Two sister chromatids that are connected by a centromere are identical to one another. They are duplicate copies of a chromatin.
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 could cause the sister chromatids in metaphase 1 not to be identical?

Why do you use non-sister chromatids to demonstrate crossing over?
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.
What object holds chromatids together during mitosis?
The centromere. It where the two identical sister chromatids come closest in contact.
Why do chromosomes have 2 sister chromatids?
they're identical because they are the product of replication.
What are chromosomes that appear identical are called?
sister chromatids
Why is it pointless for sister chromatids to crossover?
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.
During the cell cycle when would a chromosome consist of two identical sister chromatids?
During the interphase stage is whereby the chromosome consists of the two identical sister chromatids.
Difference between sister chromatids and homologous chromosomes?
Homologous chromosomes are individual chromosomes inherited from each parent. Sister chromatids are the result of DNA replication, and the are identical.
Are sister chromatids identical before crossing over occurs?
Yes they are attached at the centromere and remain identicle until crossing over occurs in prophase 1 of meosis
