Chromatin is the combination of all the DNA and its associated proteins in the nucleus. It gets condensed into chromosomes during mitosis. After DNA replication, your chromosomes have two chromatids. A chromosome that looks like the typical “X” has two chromatids. In late anaphase, the chromatids have been pulled apart to opposite poles of the cell. Each half of the cell now has a set of chromosomes that are made of one chromatid each.So a chromosome that has been pulled apart in anaphase is still a chromosome, it just has one chromatid instead of two....

When the cell is not dividing, the strands of DNA are known as chromatin. At prophase, the chromatin threads begin to condense and appear as chromosomes.

The chromosomes have not yet separated completely from their duplicates and are referred as chromatids. Twin chromatids are joined at special structures called centromeres.... Show More
