### Understanding Homologous Chromosomes and Sister Chromatids#### Match each statement with the correct term.1. **Statement:** One chromosome comes from your mom and one comes from your dad. - **Answer:** Homologous chromosomes2. **Statement:** In mitosis (where crossing over does not happen), these are identical to each other. - **Answer:** Sister chromatids3. **Statement:** In mitosis, these are what line up along the metaphase plate. - **Answer:** Sister chromatids4. **Statement:** These are held together by a centromere. - **Answer:** Sister chromatids5. **Statement:** These are not exactly identical to each other, but they do have the same genes. Specifically, they have different versions of each gene (or "alleles"). - **Answer:** Homologous chromosomes6. **Statement:** These are created during the S phase of interphase where DNA is replicated. - **Answer:** Sister chromatids#### ExplanationThis exercise helps differentiate between homologous chromosomes and sister chromatids. Homologous chromosomes come from each parent and may contain different alleles for each gene, whereas sister chromatids are exact copies of each chromosome, joined by a centromere, and are identical barring any mutations. Sister chromatids are formed during DNA replication in the S phase of the cell cycle and align on the metaphase plate during mitosis.
