Recall that meiosis consists of two sequential divisions: meiosis I and meiosis II, each with its own phases (prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase).
Understand that during meiosis I, homologous chromosomes (each consisting of two sister chromatids) are separated, not the sister chromatids themselves.
Recognize that sister chromatids remain attached through meiosis I and are only separated during meiosis II.
Identify that in anaphase II, the centromeres split and sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite poles of the cell.
Therefore, the phase during which sister chromatids are separated is anaphase II.
