What is the difference betwen anaphase 1 and 2?

In anaphase I the duplicate paired chromosomes are separated. In anaphase II, the sister chromatids are separated.


A group of four chromatids?

A group of four chromatids can be found during the stage of meiosis known as a tetrad. Tetrads are formed when homologous chromosomes pair up, creating two pairs of sister chromatids. These tetrads are important for genetic recombination to occur during meiosis, leading to genetic variation in the resulting gametes.


Paired chromosomes are said to be what?

Except for the sex chromosomes paired chromosomes are homologs.


In which stage of mitosis do the paired chromatids break part?

During anaphase in mitosis, the paired chromatids break apart and move to opposite ends of the cell.


The number of chromosomes is determined by counting what structure?

The number of chromosomes is determined by counting the paired structures called sister chromatids during cell division. Each sister chromatid contains a copy of the genetic material, allowing for accurate distribution of genetic material to daughter cells.


What happens in meiosis during anaphase I?

The chromosomes split equally and move to the opposite sides of the cell.
