Want this question answered?
Nondisjunction is when homologous chromosomes fail to separate in Meiosis I, or sister chromatids fail to separate in Meiosis II or Mitosis. This results in daughter cells with an incorrect number of chromosomes.
They are separated in Anaphase I of Meiosis I.
In animal cells (meiosis) the parent (which is a diploid cell with homologous pairs of chromosomes) seperates into two daughter cells containing the replicated pairs of sister chromatids. The process of meiosis is begun again (meiosis II) from which the sister chromatids separate into individual chromosomes. Then, the two diploid cells separate into 4 haploid daughter cells containing 1 chromosome. This is a generalized answer without the steps of meiosis described.
In Meiosis, Anaphase 2 sister chromatids (individual strands) separate and one of each duplicate goes to each side of the cell.
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.

In anaphase I of meiosis, the homologous pairs of chromosomes separate. Due to DNA replication and crossing over during prophase I, these chromosomes consist of a pair of non-identical sister chromatids. During anaphase II of meiosis, the sister chromatids separate into individual chromosomes.
The chromosomes split equally and move to the opposite sides of the cell.
They are separated in Anaphase I of Meiosis I.
Anaphase 2
Plato users, Meiosis I. i dont know the answer , but this is not the answer !

haploid and the chromosomes are composed of two chromatids
In Meiosis, Anaphase 2 sister chromatids (individual strands) separate and one of each duplicate goes to each side of the cell.
chromosomes appear as packets of four chromatids during anaphase. This is when the chromatids start to move and separate in preparation of the creation of four cells.
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.
a. chromatids do not separate at the centromere in anaphase I. b. centromeres do not exist in anaphase I. c. crossing-over occurs only in anaphase of miitosis
