They have the same length and gene locus but differ in terms of alleles. An allele is a form of a gene, differing from other alleles of the gene by a few bases at most and occupying the same locus as the other alleles of that gene. The gene locus is the position of a gene on a chromosome. Hope that helped! They have the same length and gene locus but differ in terms of alleles.

They contain diffrenet alelles coding for the same gene .. for example chromosome contains gene coding for eye colour, this gene is found on both chromosomes, but one of them has the alelle for blue colour, and the another has the allele for brown colour ..
Homologous chromosomes are different because the genetic material comes from two different parents. Chromosomes have 23 pairs of genes that come from the parents.
Because of crossing over, chromosomal segments are interchanged between homologous chromosomes
Homologous chromosomes is a pair made of a paternal and maternal chromosomes. But sister chromatid is either pairs of paternal or maternal chromosomes
Homologous
sex chromosomes
Two chromosomes in a pair that have genes that code for the same traits are called homologous chromosomes. These chromosomes are in the same locations or loci.
No, only in meiosis
the genes they carry.
Homologous is the word used to describe matching chromosomes, with a homolog being a pair of homologous chromosomes.

Homologous chromosomes is a pair made of a paternal and maternal chromosomes. But sister chromatid is either pairs of paternal or maternal chromosomes
mutation
Homologous
Homologous: pair of chromosomes that are the same Homozygous: alleles of a gene pair are the same
sex chromosomes
in a homologous chromosome there are two chromosomes ( a chromosome and a sister chromosome)
Two chromosomes are homologous if they have the same genes at the same loci (position). In a homologous pair, there is one chromosome from the mother (maternal) and one from the father (paternal).
Two chromosomes in a pair that have genes that code for the same traits are called homologous chromosomes. These chromosomes are in the same locations or loci.
we call it diploid
