What are chromatids and how do they differ from chromosomes

Biology
1 answer:
Molodets [167]3 years ago
7 0
Chromatids are only called as chromatids when they are sister chromatids, meaning that when chromosome have two double stranded DNA attached together, each of the double stranded DNA is a sister chromatid, and while the whole thing (the two sister chromatids that are attached together) is called a chromosome.

So after the DNA has been replicated, the chromosome consist of 2 sister chromatids, attached to each other at their centromere.

Overall, sister chromatid is one of the two double stranded DNA in a replicated chromosome, and chromosome is the whole "X" shape that we see. For example, in humans, after the S phase of interphase in the cell cycle, we have 46 chromosomes, with 92 chromatids, since each chromosome is an "X" shape, by having two sister chromatids.

Hope this helps!

Two different bacterial samples, a and b, were inoculated onto simmons citrate agar. What conclusions can you make?
ch4aika [34]

Bacteria sample A utilizes citrate while sample B does not.

<h3>What is the result of a simmons citrate agar?</h3>

Simmons citrate agar is a nutrient agar which contains the compound sodium citrate as a carbon source for microorganisms.

It is used to differentiate bacteria based on their use of citrate as a sole source of carbon.

A positive result for for citrate utilization will change the agar from green to blue while a negative result will remain green.

Therefore, since bacterial sample A produced a blue color while sample B agar remained green, A utilizes citrate while B does not.
