During anaphase, sister chromatids are separated and pulled towards opposite poles of the cell. This occurs after the chromosomes align at the metaphase plate during metaphase. The separation is facilitated by the spindle fibers, which shorten and pull each chromatid apart, ensuring that each new daughter cell will receive an identical set of chromosomes during cell division.
During meiosis, sister chromatids are separated during the second meiotic division, specifically in anaphase II. At this stage, the centromeres that hold the sister chromatids together split, allowing the chromatids to move to opposite poles of the cell. This separation ensures that each resulting gamete contains only one copy of each chromosome, contributing to genetic diversity. Ultimately, this process leads to the formation of four haploid cells from one diploid cell.
In Metaphase the chromatids line up at the equator/midplane of the cell.
Chromatids are separated during cell division by a structure called the mitotic spindle, which attaches to the centromere of each sister chromatid. The spindle fibers then pull the sister chromatids apart towards opposite poles of the cell, ensuring that each daughter cell receives the correct number of chromosomes.
After anaphase, chromatids are referred to as sister chromatids until they are separated and pulled to opposite poles of the cell. Once they are separated, each chromatid is considered an individual chromosome. This transition marks the beginning of the chromosomal segregation process during cell division.
During meiosis, sister chromatids are separated during the second meiotic division, specifically in meiosis II. This process follows the separation of homologous chromosomes in meiosis I. During metaphase II, the sister chromatids align at the cell's equatorial plane, and in anaphase II, they are pulled apart to opposite poles by spindle fibers. This separation is crucial for ensuring that each gamete receives one copy of each chromosome, maintaining genetic diversity.

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.
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 generated when a single chromosome is replicated into two copies of itself, these copies being called sister chromatids.
During meiosis, sister chromatids are separated during the second meiotic division, specifically in anaphase II.

The spindle fibers then pull the sister chromatids apart towards opposite poles of the cell, ensuring that each daughter cell receives the correct number of chromosomes.
During anaphase 1 of meiosis, the homologous chromosomes are separated. Each chromosome containing two sister chromatids is pulled to opposite ends of the cell, ensuring that each new cell will receive one complete set of chromosomes. This separation is crucial for the genetic diversity of the resulting gametes.
After anaphase, chromatids are referred to as sister chromatids until they are separated and pulled to opposite poles of the cell. Once they are separated, each chromatid is considered an individual chromosome. This transition marks the beginning of the chromosomal segregation process during cell division.
The sister chromatids of each duplicated chromosome are separated during cell division in a process called anaphase. This occurs in both mitosis, which results in two identical daughter cells, and meiosis, which produces gametes with half the chromosome number.
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.
The sister chromatid separate during anaphase II in meiosis. During anaphase I homologous chromosomes get separated.
