Question

Name the members of each pair of similar chromosomes

Answer 1

Answer:

In humans, each cell normally contains 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46. Twenty-two of these pairs, called autosomes, look the same in both males and females. The 23rd pair, the sex chromosomes, differ between males and females.

Answer 2

Answer:

The two pair members are called homologous chromosomes , or homologs. ... Each copy is known as a chromatid ; thus, each chromosome is composed of two identical sister chromatids. During meiosis, homologous chromosomes line up and exchange segments, a process called crossing over.
