Answer:

The correct answer is option sister chromatids are separated from each other to form gametes.

Explanation:

Meiosis is a  type of cell division which produces 4 daughter cells with different genetic material. The ploidy number or set of chromosomes is reduced to half in the newly formed daughter cells.

This process usually proceeds in two divisions-meiosis I and meiosis II with four stages in each division which are prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase.

Sister chromatids separate from each other during anaphase II of meiosis II which produces four haploid gametes from two intermediate cells formed by meiosis I.

Thus, sister chromatids are separated from each other to form gametes is the correct answer.

dem82 [27]

Answer:

c. Two sister chromatids did not separate into the proper daughter cells during anaphase.

Explanation:

The observed cell is undergoing mitosis which does not include separation of homologous chromosomes. During anaphase of mitosis, two sister chromatids of each chromosome separate from each other. They move to opposite poles. This results in equal distribution of two complete sets of chromosomes to each daughter cell.

However, the failure of two sister chromatids of a chromosome during anaphase would lead to the formation of two abnormal daughter cells. One of the daughter cells would have one extra chromosome (2n+1) while the other would lack one chromosome from the diploid set (2n-1).
