Verified step by step guidance1
Recall the stages of meiosis and what happens during each phase, focusing on the behavior of chromosomes and chromatids.
Understand that during meiosis I, homologous chromosomes separate, but sister chromatids remain together.
Identify that sister chromatids separate during meiosis II, specifically during anaphase II.
Recognize that anaphase I involves separation of homologous chromosomes, not sister chromatids.
Conclude that the correct phase when sister chromatids separate is anaphase II of meiosis.
