The replicas of chromosomes that form during prophase are called what?
During prophase, a chromosome is composed of tightly coiled DNA and protein molecules. Each chromosome exists as a pair of identical sister chromatids which are held together at the centromere.
When does a chromosome consist of 2 identical chromatids?
In eukaryotes, throughout the entire life of the Cell, also called the cell cycle. During Mitosis the chromosomes are separated.
Is the animal cell the only one to have chromatids?
During mitosis, the chromatin condenses to form chromosomes. Each chromosome consists of two identical strands, or chromatids.
Chromosomes during prophase are made up of two identical strands What are these strands called?
The two identical strands of a chromosome are called chromatids. DNA replication occurs in the interphase stage of the cell cycle.
What can one half of a duplicated chromosome be referred as?
A chromatid is one-half of two identical copies of a replicated chromosome. During cell division, the identical copies are joined together at the region of the chromosome called the centromere.Joined chromatids are known as sister chromatids. Once the joined sister chromatids separate from one another in anaphase of mitosis, each is known as a daughter chromosome.Chromatids are formed from chromatin fibers.Bailey, Regina. "Chromatid."

What is difference between chromosome and chromatids?
A chromatid is one-half of two identical copies of a replicated chromosome. During cell division, the identical copies are joined together at the region of the chromosome called the centromere. They are known as sister chromatids. Once the paired sister chromatids separate from one another in anaphase of mitosis, each is known as a daughter chromosome.

How many chromatids have one chromosome?
Two (2). Before DNA replication, each chromosome is composed of a single chromatid. After replication, but before separation of the chromatids during anaphase, this is true.
Why are chromosomes pairs of DNA?
When chromosomes are visible, they exist as replicated DNA, so each chromosome consists of two identical sister chromatids, which will be separated during mitosis to form two new identical daughter nuclei.
What happens during anaphase1?
the chromatids holding the chromosome together loosen
Each chromosome of a eukaryotic cell consists of a pair of identical structures called?
Chromosomes exist in somatic cells as nearly identical copies of each other called homologous chromosome. The formation of daughter cells that occurs during cytokinesis signals the end of cell division.
How does one chromatid compare to its sister chromatid?
Sister chromatids are two identical copies of a single chromosome that are connected by a centromere. They occur as a result of a chromosome that duplicated during the S phase of the cell cycle.
How many sister chromatids present during anaphase of mitosis?
A human body cell has 46 chromosomes. Before mitosis, the DNA/chromosomes replicate, resulting in 92 chromosomes which will be divided into two genetically identical daughter cells during mitosis.
