Chromosomes separate during the anaphase stage of meiosis or mitosis. During this stage the chromosomes move to the opposite ends of the cell.
During the fourth stage of mitosis, known as anaphase, the duplicated chromosomes are pulled apart. The sister chromatids are separated and pulled towards opposite ends of the cell by the spindle fibers. This ensures that each daughter cell receives an identical set of chromosomes.
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.
Anaphase is the phase of mitosis where sister chromatids separate and move towards opposite poles of the cell. This marks the transition from the duplicated chromosome state to individual chromosomes.
There are two sister chromatids in a duplicated chromosome. Each sister chromatid is an identical copy resulting from DNA replication during the S phase of the cell cycle.
In prophase, there are 46 chromosomes present, which are duplicated sister chromatids. In metaphase, there are still 46 chromosomes, but they are aligned along the metaphase plate. In telophase, the chromosomes have separated and there are once again 46 individual chromosomes in each daughter cell.

Somatic cell chromosome is made of two identical chromatids
Sister chromatids are two copies of a replicated chromosome. Chromosomes occur in pairs. These will be separated in anaphase of mitosis and one chromatid pair will be left for each daughter cell.
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.
At the beginning of meiosis, copies of chromosomes linked together at their centromeres are called sister chromatids. These sister chromatids are duplicated copies of a single chromosome and are held together by proteins called cohesins.

There are two sister chromatids in a duplicated chromosome. Each sister chromatid is an identical copy resulting from DNA replication during the S phase of the cell cycle.
Chromosomes and sister chromatids are joined strands of duplicated genetic material. A chromatid is one copy of a duplicated chromosome which, before replication, is composed of one DNA molecule.
In anaphase I the duplicate paired chromosomes are separated. In anaphase II, the sister chromatids are separated.
In prophase, there are 46 chromosomes present, which are duplicated sister chromatids. In metaphase, there are still 46 chromosomes, but they are aligned along the metaphase plate. In telophase, the chromosomes have separated and there are once again 46 individual chromosomes in each daughter cell.
In the middle of mitotic spindle are the duplicated chromosomes held by kinetochores. These are protein structures are involved in pulling apart the sister chromatids.
