Question

Which correctly describes sister chromatids

Answer 1

Sister chromatids are identical copies of a chromosome that are formed during DNA replication. They are joined together at a region called the centromere and remain attached to each other until they are separated during cell division (either mitosis or meiosis). Each sister chromatid contains the same genetic information and is considered one half of the duplicated chromosome. After they are separated during cell division, each sister chromatid becomes an independent chromosome in the daughter cells.
