Understand the stages of meiosis: Meiosis consists of two rounds of division, Meiosis I and Meiosis II, each with their own phases: Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase.
Recall the events of Anaphase I: During Anaphase I, homologous chromosomes (not sister chromatids) are separated and pulled to opposite poles of the cell.
Recall the events of Anaphase II: In Anaphase II, the sister chromatids are finally separated and move towards opposite poles, similar to what happens in mitosis.
Differentiate between the roles of Anaphase I and Anaphase II: Anaphase I separates homologous chromosomes, while Anaphase II separates sister chromatids.
Conclude that the separation of sister chromatids occurs during Anaphase II, which is the correct stage in meiosis for this event.
