The process described in your question is called anaphase. One can remember this step of the cell cycle easily because the chromosomes form 'A' shapes at the ends of the poles- and 'A' is of course the first letter of anaphase. The next step in the cell cycle is telophase- where the cell undergoes cytokinesis- splitting to form two new cells.
Anaphase I, and then again in Anaphase II--two seperations occur in meiosis.
The sister-chromatids are separated during anaphase.They are pulled apart by microtubules of the cytoskeleton. Once apart, they are known as chromosomes (or daughter-chromosomes).
The phase when homologues are separating is called anaphase I of meiosis. During this phase, homologous chromosomes are pulled apart and migrate to opposite poles of the cell.
During meiosis, tetrads, which are connected by a synapse partway down their length, line up along the cellular equator during metaphase I. The tetrads are then separated during anaphase I as the spindle fibers pull the tetrads apart towards opposite sides of the cell.
The chromosomes split equally and move to the opposite sides of the cell.
The spindle fibers, which are composed of microtubules, pull the chromosomes apart during cell division. These fibers attach to the centromeres of the chromosomes and help guide them to opposite poles of the cell during mitosis or meiosis.
Yes, in both mitosis and meiosis, the individual chromosomes move apart during cell division. In mitosis, the sister chromatids of each chromosome separate and move to opposite poles of the cell, while in meiosis, homologous chromosomes separate in the first division and sister chromatids separate in the second division.

The phase when homologues are separating is called anaphase I of meiosis. During this phase, homologous chromosomes are pulled apart and migrate to opposite poles of the cell.
In meiosis, the tetrads (group of four chromatids) get pulled apart during anaphase I. This is when homologous chromosomes separate and move to opposite poles of the cell, resulting in the reduction of chromosome number from diploid to haploid.
opposite poles of the cell, ensuring that each gamete receives only one copy of each chromosome. This is important for maintaining the correct number of chromosomes in the offspring.

Sister chromatids separate during Anaphase II of meiosis.*They are pulled apart and then start moving to opposite sides of the cell.
During anaphase I of meiosis the spindle fibers pull apart in homologous chromosomes. The spindle fibers are composed of micro-tubules. The spindle fibers continue to shorten during anaphase in order to bring the chromosomes at two poles.During anaphase I of meiosis the spindle fibers pull apart in homologous chromosomes.

The centrioles move apart to opposite ends of the cell, the chromosomes become attached to the fiber connected to centrioles pulling the chromatids apart; when this is over all the chromatids line up.
