homologous chromosomes
Chromosomes that are paired during meiosis. Such chromosomes are alike with regard to size and also position of the centromere. They also have the same genes, but not necessarily the same alleles, at the same locus or location. All autosomes and the sex chromosomes of females occur in homologous pairs. The sex chromosomes of males are mostly hemizygous.
