guys wat is the diff between a chromrosome and a chromatid

 

 

i think that durin cell division a the dna in the chromosome divides to form two chromatids.

is this true pls tell me im realyy confused

If you're ever in doubt about how many chromosomes are in a cell at a given time (it can be confusing because a chromosome can have either one or two chromatids depending on its mitotic state) a good rule of thumb is to count the centromeres.
