During cell division, the centrioles on either side of the cell produce a fiber-like spindle that attaches to the chromosomes and pulls them apart.

What is the phase which identical sets of chromosomes are moved to opposite sides of te cell?

During anaphase of mitosis or meiosis, identical sets of chromosomes are moved to opposite sides of the cell. This ensures that each daughter cell receives an exact copy of the genetic material.


In what phase does the movement of individual chromosomes towards opposite poles occur?

In the context of cell division, chromosomes will aline in the middle of the cell during metaphase, then during anaphase they are pulled apart into two daughter cells by centrioles. I wouldn't say they are ever on opposite poles, also considering that there is no directionality of a cell.


What is the major difference between anaphase and metaphase?

Anaphase is the stage of cell division where sister chromatids separate and move towards opposite ends of the cell, pulled by the spindle fibers. Metaphase is the stage where chromosomes align at the cell's equator before they separate in anaphase.


When do the chromosomes separate in mitosis?

Sister chromatids separate during Anaphase II of meiosis.*They are pulled apart and then start moving to opposite sides of the cell.


Stage of mitosis where chromosomes split apart?

Anaphase is the stage of mitosis where chromosomes split apart. During anaphase, the sister chromatids are pulled towards opposite poles of the cell by the spindle fibers. This separation ensures that each resulting daughter cell receives a full set of chromosomes.


What processes occur during the mitotic anaphase?

During anaphase, anaphase occurs. This is when the lined up chromosomes begin to pull apart to other sides of the large, undivided cell. This pulling is done by microtubules. Once the chromosomes are on opposite sides of each other, this marks the end of anaphase and start of telophase.


The chromosomes move to opposite poles during?

The chromosomes move to opposite poles during anaphase of mitosis or meiosis. This movement is facilitated by microtubules that attach to the centromeres of the chromosomes and pull them apart towards the opposite ends of the cell.


When the chromosome pair separate and move to opposite ends is called?

The paired chromosomes separate at the kinetochores and move to opposite sides of the cell. This occurs at anaphase.
