The correct answer is C. Microevolution describes the evolution of organisms in populations, while macroevolution describes the evolution of species over long periods of time.

Explanation:

In biology, the evolution refers to changes organisms and species go through over time which is usually prompted by changes in the environment and adaptative processes. Additionally, evolution can be studied from two main perspectives: microevolution and macroevolution. Microevolution focuses on studying the changes at a lower lever usually by studying individual organisms or population, but not all organisms of a species. On the other hand, macroevolution studies the evolution or changes in species or even a group of species. For example in a microevolution biologist might study birds evolution by analyzing individuals or a specific population, while from macroevolution all the species need to be studied.

Sister chromatids separate in anaphase of mitosis and anaphase Il of meiosis

Explanation:

After the interphase in the cell division cycle, the mitosis process begins, which is composed of 4 phases, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. The prophase occurs when the chromatin is condensed and the mitotic spindle is formed, the metaphase the chromosomes align along the cell equator, in the anaphase the separation of the sister chromatids occurs and in the telophase finally the heterochromatin is converted into euchromatin and the envelope is formed nuclear cell.

Meiosis, which is the cell division of germ cells, also has the same phases but they occur on two occasions: prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I and telophase I for meiosis I and for meiosis II, prophase II, metaphase II, anaphase II and telophase II. In the anaphase I the homologous chromosomes are separated, they are condensed in the prophase II while in anaphase II the chromatids are separated.
