Question

During which phase of meiosis do the homologous chromosomes separate and head towards opposite poles of the cell?

Answer 1

During anaphase, homologous chromosomes separate and head towards opposite poles of the cell.

• A cell prepares for cell division by replicating its chromosomes, segregating them, and creating two identical nuclei during the mitotic phase.
• After the metaphase procedure, the mitotic stage known as anaphase occurs during which the freshly replicated chromosomes are transferred to the opposing poles of the cell and the replicated chromosomes are split.
• Sister chromatids split from one another and are drawn to the opposite ends of the cell during anaphase.
• The sister chromatids are able to separate because the protein "glue" holding them together is degraded.
• Each chromosome now exists on its own. Each pair's chromosomes are drawn to the cell's opposite ends.
