Question

During meiosis I, the homologous chromosomes separate from each other, and this separation occurs through the process of meiotic division. However, sister chromatids remain attached to each other until meiosis II, where they separate from each other to form four haploid daughter cells. So, the separation of sister chromatids does not occur during meiosis I.
