chromatidéjét

Chromatidéjét, often referred to as chromatids, are the two identical copies of a replicated chromosome. Before cell division, a chromosome undergoes DNA replication, resulting in two identical sister chromatids joined together at a region called the centromere. These sister chromatids are essentially the same genetic material. During mitosis and meiosis, the cell machinery separates these sister chromatids, ensuring that each daughter cell receives a complete set of chromosomes. The term "chromatidéjét" specifically refers to these replicated strands, highlighting their distinctness as separate entities within the replicated chromosome structure. The separation of sister chromatids is a critical step in ensuring genetic continuity and accuracy during cell division.
