C Each half of the chromosome contains genetically different material
D. The pinched middle of the chromosome is what allows it to split during mitosis.

A. Each half of the chromosome is genetically identical.

C

Explanation:

I would say it is C.

Each cell has 23 chromosome (46 in total). 23 is from our mother, 23 from our father. So this would mean the chromosomes are not genetically identical, hence we have variation.

Hope this helps!
