DNA


What codes for DNA?

Homologous chromosomes


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.


Crossing-over is the exchange of reciprocal segments of DNA between homologous chromosomes true or false?

It's true that crossing over is the exchange of reciprocal DNA parts between homologous chromosomes.


Are chromosomes a DNA molecule with many genes?

Yes, because chromosomes are full of genes and DNA


Are sister chromatids or homologous chromosomes more similar?

Sister chromatids are more similar to each other because they are exact copies of each other formed during DNA replication. Homologous chromosomes, on the other hand, are pairs of chromosomes that contain genes for the same traits, but may have different versions of those genes.


When do homologous chromosomes exchange DNA?

Homologous chromosomes exchange DNA during meiosis, specifically in prophase I, during a process called crossing over or recombination. During this stage, homologous chromosomes pair up and form structures called tetrads, where segments of DNA can be exchanged between non-sister chromatids. This genetic exchange increases genetic diversity in the resulting gametes.


What are strands of DNA called?

During Prophase I, DNA is exchanged between homologous chromosomes.Meiosis begins when a cell's chromosomes are duplicated by a round of DNA replication. The strand holding the DNA is the homologs and has an exact copy know as a sister chromatid.


A molecule of DNA is packaged and carried by a larger molecule called?

Chromosomes


Do homologous chromosomes pair in mitosis?

Homologous chromosomes do not pair in mitosis. Mitosis is the process of cell division where a cell duplicates its DNA and splits into two identical daughter cells, so the homologous chromosomes do not need to pair up like they do in meiosis.


What is homologous chromosomes frequently exchange portions of their DNA called?

It's called crossing over, and it generally only happens between homologous chromosomes.


What is the relationships between chromosomes and homologous chromosomes?

Chromosomes are structures that contain genetic information, while homologous chromosomes are pairs of chromosomes that contain similar genes in the same order. Homologous chromosomes are inherited from each parent and undergo processes like crossing over during meiosis to exchange genetic material.
