Question
homologous chromosomes
o are always haploid
o are a pair of chromosomes with the same genes but different versions of those genes
o are identical copies of the same chromosome
o are the same thing as sister chromatids
Homologous chromosomes are pairs of chromosomes that have the same genes at the same loci. However, they can have different alleles (versions) of those genes. Sister chromatids are identical copies of a single chromosome formed during DNA replication. Homologous chromosomes are not haploid; diploid cells have homologous chromosome pairs. Also, homologous chromosomes are not identical copies of the same chromosome like sister chromatids.
