The two copies of a chromosome are called sister chromatids. They are identical copies formed during DNA replication and are connected at a region called the centromere. Sister chromatids are separated during cell division to ensure that each daughter cell receives an identical set of chromosomes.
What else can I help you with?
What are two copies of a gene called?
Two copies of a gene are called alleles. Alleles can be the same (homozygous) or different (heterozygous).
If an individual has the copies of a trait the same what is it called?
If an individual has two identical copies of a trait, it is called homozygous for that trait. This means that both copies of the gene are the same, whether they are dominant or recessive.
What are pair of similar chromosomes called?
HomologousWe receive one complete set of chromosomes from each parent. This means that for each chromosome, say chromosome 7, there are two copies in every cell of our bodies: the maternal and paternal copies of chromosome 7.The two copies of one chromosome are called a pair of homologous chromosomes.
The two copies of each chromosome in body cells are called?
The two copies of each chromosome in body cells are called homologous chromosomes. These chromosomes are similar in size, shape, and genetic content and are inherited from each parent.
What the two copies of chromosomes are called?
Chromosomes are roughly made up of proteins and DNA
What are two copies of a gene called?
Two copies of a gene are called alleles. Alleles can be the same (homozygous) or different (heterozygous).
Every chromsome except for the ex chromsomes are called?
autosomes
What are the two copies of a chromosome called after they split?
Sister chromatids
If an individual has the copies of a trait the same what is it called?
If an individual has two identical copies of a trait, it is called homozygous for that trait. This means that both copies of the gene are the same, whether they are dominant or recessive.
What caused anomaly when one daughter cells gets two copies of a chromosome?
The process by which a daughter cell accidentally get two copies of a chromosome is called "nondisjuction".
The two exact copies of DNA that make up a chromosome are called?
Chromatids.
Is there two chromsomes or one?
Humans have 46 chromosomes (in each cell), that is, 23 pairs of chromosomes.
What is a Cell that has two copies of each chromosone called?
A cell that has two copies of each chromosome is called a diploid cell. This means that each chromosome in the cell has a matching homologous chromosome. Humans have diploid cells in their body, with a total of 46 chromosomes arranged in 23 pairs.
The two exact copies of DNA that makes up each chromosome are called?
chromatids
A species that contains two copies of each chromosome is called?
A species that contains two copies of each chromosome is called diploid. Each pair of chromosomes, one from each parent, make up a diploid set in the organism.
What term describes an individual with two copies of the same allele?
The individual with two of the same allele is "homozygous" for a trait.
What is another word for homozygous?
Having two copies of the same allele. An organism as such can be called homozygote Answer: It is also called a purebreed.
