A chromatid is one of two identical halves of a duplicated chromosome, formed during DNA replication. The centromere is the region where chromatids are joined, the kinetochore is a protein structure on the centromere, chromosome arms refer to the segments on either side of the centromere, and telomeres are the protective ends of chromosomes.
