Detailed explanation-1: -The two “sister” chromatids are joined at a constricted region of the chromosome called the centromere. During cell division, spindle fibers attach to the centromere and pull each of the sister chromatids to opposite sides of the cell. Soon after, the cell divides in two, resulting in daughter cells with identical DNA.
Detailed explanation-2: -Chromosomes and cell division After DNA replication, each chromosome now consists of two physically attached sister chromatids. After chromosome condensation, the chromosomes condense to form compact structures (still made up of two chromatids).
Detailed explanation-3: -After DNA is replicated each chromosome consists of paired sister chromatids held together by cohesin.
