Chromatid
The chromatin in the cell becomes chromosomes in prophase, the first stage of mitosis. The chromatin coils tightly together to form into separate chromosome strands during this phase.
A homologous strand of a chromosome is a duplicated copy of the original chromosome, formed during DNA replication. It contains the same genetic information as the original chromosome and is held together by a centromere. Homologous chromosomes play a key role in meiosis, where they pair up and exchange genetic material during crossing over.
Daughter Chromosomes
The two coiled up strands of DNA within a chromosome are called chromatids. During cell division, chromatids separate and are distributed to daughter cells.
The second strand of a chromosome is a copy of the genetic information for that cell. There are 2 strands so that when the cell divides, there is one copy of each chromosome for each offspring cell.
The region of a chromosome holding the two double strands of replicated DNA together is called a centromere. The complex of DNA and protein that makes up eukaryotic chromosome is properly called chromatin.
The two identical strands of a chromosome are called chromatids. DNA replication occurs in the interphase stage of the cell cycle.
every and any DNA strand can constitue to a chromosome :)

You can tell a chromosome has doubled because of the DNA's strands. They coil very tightly.
Each chromosome has a single strand of DNA.
The structure that holds two strands of DNA together after replication until metaphase of mitosis is the centromere. The centromere is a region of the chromosome where the two sister chromatids are held together and is essential for proper chromosomal segregation during cell division.
