Complementary chromosomes refer to pairs of chromosomes in a diploid organism, where each chromosome in the pair carries genes for the same traits but may contain different alleles. These chromosomes work together during processes like meiosis and fertilization to ensure genetic diversity and proper segregation of genetic material. Essentially, one chromosome comes from the mother and the other from the father, complementing each other in terms of genetic information.
