Homologous chromosomes are pairs of chromosomes (one from each parent) that have the same genes at the same loci. However, they may have different alleles (versions of the genes). They are not inherited from only the mother or only the father (each homologous pair has one chromosome from mom and one from dad). Also, they do not carry the same DNA sequence as alleles can differ, leading to different DNA sequences at those gene loci.
