Explain how the following terms are related to one another dna centromere chromosome chromatid?

DNA is bundled up into a chromossome with could be one or two chromatids depending on where the cell is in its cell cycle (two chromatids give the chromossome that X look). Both chromatids are bound together by a centromere.

What is a function of those spindle microtubules that do not attach to kinetochores?
microtubules attached to a chromosome Wiki Answers respondents need to start answering questions with a greater sense of purpose. People do not ask questions to receive a terse, slightly correct answer. They want a valid answer to a valid question. As per this one, kinetochore microtubules are NOT just microtubules attached to a chromosome. They are microtubules attached to kinetochores on the centromeres of chromatids. Two chromatids make up a "chromosome" and each chromatid has a centromere with a kinetochore on it. When microtubules from the spindle pole attach to the kinetochores on each side of the "chromosome" the two kinetochore microtubules (from opposite poles of the cell) successfully pull the "chromosome" apart and provide each new developing daughter cell nucleus with a chromatid from that chromatid pair.
After meiosis I each daughter cell contains Please explain why one chromosome of each homolog is incorrect I added my reasoning to the answer this question?
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.
Explain how crossing over can unlink genes?
crossing over can unlink genes because when crossing over occurs it a portion of one chromosome is replaced by a region of a homologous chromosome and during this the alleles that were presently on that linked gene could possibly be separated
Which sex cell controls the sex of a baby?
I will explain, but I don't know why you put this in cat behavior. The X chromosome and Y chromosome control gender. If an embryo's two chromosomes are XX, it will be a girl. If the chromosomes are XY, it will be male. A pair of chromosomes have to have at least one X chromosome in it, but can also have a Y chromosome.
Explain why a woman carrying a gene for hemophlia can produce hemophilic sons when she is mated with a normal male?
Hemophilia is a dominant gene mutation in the X chromosome.

Explain how the sex chromosomes determine the sex of the offspring?
it is determined by which parent give the chromosome. if the y chromosome is in it will be a girl and if it will be a boy.
Are gentic defects associated with abnormalities of autosomes or of sex chromosomes explain?
genetic defects are responsible for disorders can be on any chromosome wether it is and autosome or a sex chromosome.
If you were attempting to explain to Jake how a chromosome looks you would most accurately tell him its like a?
rod.

Could a karyotype be used to recognize the damage radiation had done to a chromosome please explain why?
A karyotype can be used to recognize the damage radiation had done to a chromosome because of the chromosomal differences between males and females.
Explain why chromosomes are important for organisms?
each chromosome has thousands of genes that play an important role in determining how an organism develops and functions
Which of the following does Archimedes' principle help to explain?
Floating
Explain how two genes on the same chromosome can still assort independently?
the genes are probably located close to each other.
Explain the relationship between a chromosome map and a map unit?
A chromosome map is a diagram that shows the linear order of genes on a chromosome. This would display whether two traits are close to each other therefore being displayed together. The percentage of this frequency of these traits crossing over together are called map units.
Explain how crossing over can unlink genes?
crossing over can unlink genes because when crossing over occurs it a portion of one chromosome is replaced by a region of a homologous chromosome and during this the alleles that were presently on that linked gene could possibly be separated
