The correct description of chromatids is **identical strands of chromosomes**.
During cell division, specifically in the S phase of the cell cycle, chromosomes are replicated, resulting in sister chromatids. These chromatids are identical copies of each chromosome, held together at a region called the centromere until they are separated during cell division.
