Which of the following statements best describes the major difference between anaphase of mitosis and anaphase i of meiosis? in anaphase i, homologous pairs are separated but sister chromatids stay joined together. in anaphase, spindle fibers pull each set of sister chromatids to opposite ends of the cell. in anaphase i, sister chromatids are separated, forming a total of four haploid cells. in anaphase, tetrads of homologous pairs are separated to form four new nuclei

In anaphase I, sister chromatids are separated, forming a total of four haploid cells.


Meiosis is the process of cell division by which involving gametes. Cell division is just the same for sperm and egg cells, but they have distinguishable descriptions and labels in the process. Spermatogenesis is for the males’ sperm cells and oogenesis is the process for females’ egg cells. The cell division of meiosis involves the two phases, respectively meiosis I and meiosis II. Meiosis I like mitosis is the cell division that produces diploid cells. These diploid cells are cells that contain a complete pair of chromosomes which is 46. The result is two diploid cells after the first meiosis. To provide clear explanation, in contrast haploid cells only contain 23 chromosomes and are created after meiosis II which is 4 in number.

Your answer is going to be a. i know my biology
