Telophase
Metaphase
This occurs during the anaphase phase of mitosis. In anaphase, the microtubules shorten, pulling apart the sister chromatids at their centromeres. The separated chromatids are then pulled to opposite poles of the cell by the spindle fibers.
In anaphase 1 of meiosis, the centromeres divide, separating the pairs of homologous chromosomes. Each chromosome is then pulled toward opposite poles of the cell by the spindle fibers attached to the centromeres. This results in the distribution of one member of each homologous pair to each daughter cell.
anaphase
This process is called anaphase, where the sister chromatids are pulled towards opposite ends of the cell by the spindle fibers. This ensures that each daughter cell will receive an identical set of chromosomes.

Chromosomes move to opposite poles of the cell.
Anaphase I of meiosis is more analogous to anaphase in mitosis than anaphase II. In anaphase I, homologous chromosomes are separated and pulled to opposite poles, similar to how sister chromatids are separated during mitotic anaphase. In contrast, anaphase II involves the separation of sister chromatids, which is akin to what occurs in mitosis but happens after a reductional division in meiosis. Thus, the mechanisms and outcomes of anaphase I align more closely with those of mitosis.
Metaphase
The chromosomes move apart, towards the opposite poles.
The tetrads are pulled apart.
prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase (including cytokinesis)
During anaphase of mitosis or anaphase II of meiosis, the replicated DNA strands move toward opposite poles of the cell. This happens after the sister chromatids are separated and pulled apart by the spindle fibers.
During the anaphase stage of mitosis, centromeres divide and the sister chromatids are separated as they are pulled towards opposite poles of the cell by the spindle fibers. This results in the chromosomes moving toward their respective poles.
