Chromatid
A structure found in animal cells from which microtubules originate and that is important during cell division.
Chromatid

Centromere
Centrosome
A small protein molecule associated with DNA and important in DNA packing in the eukaryotic chromosome. Eukaryotic chromatin consists of roughly equal parts of DNA and that protein.
