Which is a homologous chromosome pair?

Answer
A
chromatid
B
zygote
C
gamete
D
tetrad

Explanation

A tetrad forms when two homologous chromosomes pair up during meiosis. Each chromosome has two sister chromatids, so the paired chromosomes together contain four chromatids. A chromatid is only one copy of a chromosome, while a zygote and a gamete are cells, not chromosome pairs.
