Recall the key difference between mitosis and meiosis: mitosis involves one division resulting in two identical daughter cells, while meiosis involves two divisions (meiosis I and meiosis II) producing four genetically distinct cells.
Understand that in mitosis, sister chromatids separate during anaphase, moving to opposite poles of the cell.
In meiosis I, homologous chromosomes (not sister chromatids) separate during anaphase I, which is different from mitosis.
In meiosis II, the process resembles mitosis because sister chromatids separate during anaphase II, moving to opposite poles.
Therefore, the stage of meiosis most similar to mitosis in terms of sister chromatid separation is anaphase II.
