Understand the structure of a chromosome during cell division. Each chromosome is made up of two identical parts before they separate.
Recall that these identical parts are called chromatids, which are joined together at a specific region.
Identify the region where the two chromatids are connected, known as the centromere.
Recognize that the question asks for the two identical parts of a chromosome, which are the chromatids.
Conclude that the correct term to fill in the blank is 'chromatids', as they represent the two identical halves of a duplicated chromosome.
