Metaphase leads to anaphase, during which each chromosome's sister chromatidsseparate and move to opposite poles of the cell. Enzymatic breakdown of cohesin-which linked the sister chromatids together during prophase-causes this separation to occur.
At the end of meiosis I, the chromosomes are duplicated (sister chromatids) and homologous chromosomes separate. At the end of meiosis II, the sister chromatids separate, resulting in four haploid daughter cells each with a single set of chromosomes. Meiosis II is similar to mitosis in terms of chromosome behavior as the sister chromatids separate.
No, sister chromatids are separated during anaphase of meiosis I. In prophase II of meiosis, each chromatid (now called a chromosome) pairs with its homologous chromosome, but they are not connected as sister chromatids.
DNA is copied.
Yes, there is no replication step between meiosis I and meiosis II. The DNA remains in a duplicated state from the end of meiosis I and goes directly into meiosis II, where the sister chromatids are separated.
Sister chromatid separation occurs during anaphase of mitosis and anaphase II of meiosis. In mitosis, sister chromatids are separated to opposite poles of the cell, while in meiosis II, sister chromatids are separated to produce four haploid daughter cells.
Sister chromatids separate during anaphase II of meiosis.

In Meiosis I: Separates homologous chromosomes In Meiosis II: Separates sister chromatids
The two types of meiosis are meiosis I and meiosis II. Meiosis I involves homologous chromosomes separating, while meiosis II involves sister chromatids separating.
Yes, there is no replication step between meiosis I and meiosis II. The DNA remains in a duplicated state from the end of meiosis I and goes directly into meiosis II, where the sister chromatids are separated.
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.
Sister chromatid separation occurs during anaphase of mitosis and anaphase II of meiosis. In mitosis, sister chromatids are separated to opposite poles of the cell, while in meiosis II, sister chromatids are separated to produce four haploid daughter cells.
Sister chromatids are pulled apart from each other during the anaphase II stage of meiosis II. From there the chromatids are taken to opposite poles of the cell and create two haploid cells.
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.
During meiosis, the sister chromatids of chromosomes separate into different cells, ultimately resulting in four haploid daughter cells.
