Recall that a tetrad forms during prophase I of meiosis when homologous chromosomes pair up.
Understand that each chromosome has already been replicated during the S phase, so each consists of two sister chromatids.
Since a tetrad consists of two homologous chromosomes paired together, and each chromosome has two sister chromatids, multiply the number of chromosomes by the number of chromatids per chromosome.
Calculate the total number of chromatids in a tetrad as \(2 \text{ chromosomes} \times 2 \text{ chromatids per chromosome} = 4 \text{ chromatids}\).
Therefore, the number of chromatids present in a tetrad during meiosis is 4.
