Chromatid
One of the two identical parts of the condensed chromosome during mitosis.

Subunit of a chromosome after replication and prior to anaphase of meiosis II or mitosis. At anaphase of meiosis II or mitosis when the centromeres divide and the sister chromatids separate each chromatid becomes a chromosome.

Chromatid
A chromatid is one of two identical halves of a replicated chromosome. During cell division, the chromosomes first replicate so that each daughter cell receives a complete set of chromosomes.

chromatid - one half of a replicated chromosome which is joined to the other half at the centromere.

Chromatid
One of the two identical strands of a newly replicated chromosome.
Chromogenic substrate
A substrate that changes color when modified by a specific enzyme.

Chromatid A chromosome at metaphase can be seen to be made up of two identical sister chromatids held together at the centromere. At anaphase one chromatid will go to each pole.

Chromatid. Each of the two daughter strands of a duplicated chromosome joined at the centromere during mitosis and meiosis.

Chromatid: One of two copies of a replicated chromosome during mitosis. Together they are called sister chromatids. Each one becomes a daughter chromosome at anaphase of mitosis and at the second meiotic division.

sister chromatid (available in G2 after chromosome duplication), or on the
homologous chromosome (in G1; that is, before each chromosome has been duplicated).

sister chromatids Chromatids joined by a common centromere and carrying identical genetic information (unless crossing-over has occurred). PICTURE ...

Chromatid
The term which McClung (1900) proposed for each of the four threads making up a chromosome-pair at meiosis (Gk. chroma, colour; for the derivation of '-id', see diploid).

chromatid A replicated chromosome joined to its sister chromatid by the centromere; separates and becomes daughter chromosome at anaphase of mitosis or anaphase of the second meiotic division.

A chromatid is a single DNA molecule.
Double-stranded chromosomes have two chromatids; normally, each one is identical to the other. The point where the two chromatids are attached is called the centromere.

Condensed chromatid pairs are held together at the metaphase plate by balanced bipolar forces exerted on the chromosomes by kinetochore microtubules in the mitotic spindle.

Label two chromatids with each letter. This way they can line up the pairs of homologous chromosomes during metaphase I and demonstrate all of the phases of meiosis. This leads right into a lesson on dihybrid crosses and probability.

Anaphase II: CHROMATIDS separate and begin moving to the poles.
Telophase II: CLEAVAGE FURROW forms beginning CYTOKINESIS.

Fragile sites -- a non-staining gap of variable width that usually involves both chromatids and is always at exactly the same point on a specific chromosome derived from an individual or kindred.

Chromatid The two identical halves of a chromosome produced for cell division and meiosis.
Chromosome Structures found in the nucleus of cells composed of DNA and proteins.

After the DNA is replicated in the S phase preceding meiosis, the homologous chromosomes (each composed of two chromatids) pair up in Prophase I and then crossing over, ...

It is customary in genetics to use strand for chromatid. It has therefore been used in that sense in some books, where it has also been used for one double-chain (that is, duplex) DNA molecule.

During metaphase, cohesion between sister chromatids is maintained by a chromosomal protein complex, cohesin. Anaphase is triggered when separase cleaves the Scc1 subunit of cohesin at two specific recognition sequences.

Anaphase is preceded by metaphase, by the end of which fully condensed sister chromatids are arranged in pairs, their centromeres lying along a surface known as the metaphase plate.
