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.
The cell structure that joins two sister chromatids into one single chromosome is called the centromere. This is at the center of the sister chromatids.
Sister chromatids
each side of the chromosome is called a chromatid they are bonded together by the centromere
Each chromosome consists of two sister chromatids, which are identical copies of the chromosome connected at a region called the centromere. During cell division, the sister chromatids separate and each is passed on to a daughter cell.
translocation
Sister chromatids in a chromosome are attached by a structure called the centromere. The centromere is a region where the two sister chromatids are held together until they separate during cell division.
The chromatids of a chromosome are attached at a point called the centromere. The centromere is a region where the two chromatids are closely aligned and hold together until they separate during cell division.
The point of attatchment between two chromatids is called the centromere. When two chromatids are connected, it is called a chromosome which is essential in DNA replication, or, mitosis.
Chromatin is intertwinted mass of fine thread-like structure made of DNA and protein. During cell division (mitosis and meiosis), chromatin condenses to form thicker rod-like structures called chromosomes. Each chromosome consists of two similar halves called chromatids. Formation of chromosomes having two similar halves or chromatids is meant for equitable distribution of chromatin which is hereditary material.
