The correct description of sister chromatids is:
**b. they are part of the lined-up chromosomes in mitosis.**
Sister chromatids are identical copies of a chromosome that are formed by DNA replication during the S phase of the cell cycle. During mitosis, they are aligned along the metaphase plate before being separated into daughter cells.
