Centromeres

The region of a chromosome where the two sister chromatids are joined, playing a crucial role in the movement of chromosomes during cell division.

Sister Chromatids

Chromosomes Decondense

A process where chromosomes relax from their highly structured and compact form to a less condensed, more accessible state, typically occurring at the end of mitosis or meiosis.

Telophase
