In meiosis,homologous chromosomes separate during

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Homologous chromosomes separate during anaphase I. In this stage, the homologous chromosomes are pulled to opposite poles of the cell by the spindle fibers, resulting in the separation of the homologous pairs. This is different from anaphase II, where the sister chromatids of each chromosome separate. In metaphase I, the homologous pairs are aligned at the equator of the cell, but they have not separated yet. Prophase I and prophase II are not stages where homologous chromosomes separate.
