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!

Which organ stores and compacts waste before it is eliminated?
liberstina [14]
That organ is called the rectum, or more coomonly, the anus. The rectum is the final part of the large intestine and the digestive system, where food that has had all its nutrients extracted (as much as possible, anyway) is sent to be compacted and sent out through the anus in the form of excreta. The contents in the rectum is mostly indigestible fiber and other materials. The rectum at its end connects to the bodily orifice known as the anus.
