Yes, and just about as fast as they later recombine.
Yes, sister chromatids separate during mitosis.
Both autosomes and sex chromosomes separate during mitosis./ Somatic chromosomes separate during mitosis with same number as in the parent cell.
Chromatids in eukaryotic cells separate during the process of mitosis or meiosis. In mitosis, chromatids separate during anaphase to form individual chromosomes, while in meiosis, chromatids separate during anaphase II to produce haploid daughter cells.
Anaphase.
anaphase
Duplicated chromosomes separate during anaphase of mitosis. During this phase, the sister chromatids are pulled apart towards opposite poles of the cell by the spindle fibers.
Chromatids separate during cell division ie anaphase of mitosis and anaphase 2 of meiosis.
Meiosis I better mirrors the mitosis process because during this stage the homologous chromosomes separate, similar to the way sister chromatids separate during mitosis. Meiosis II, on the other hand, involves separating sister chromatids, which is not seen in mitosis.
During mitosis, the centrioles duplicate and move to opposite ends of the cell to help organize the spindle fibers that separate the chromosomes.

No. In mitosis the chromosomes separate once. In meiosis, in anaphase I, homologous chromosomes separate, but are still attached as sister chromatids. In anaphase II, the sister chromatids separate. So there are two chromosome separations in meiosis.
During prophase of mitosis, chromosomes condense and become shorter. As mitosis progresses, the condensed chromosomes move to the center of the cell and eventually separate during anaphase.
