|
sister chromatids separate

all of the above

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Anaphase is the stage of mitosis or meiosis when chromosomes are split and the sister chromatids move to opposite poles of the cell. During Anaphase II, the centromeres are split, and the new daughter chromosomes are pulled toward the poles. They take on a V-shape as they are pulled back.
Detailed explanation-2: -During anaphase, each pair of chromosomes is separated into two identical, independent chromosomes. The chromosomes are separated by a structure called the mitotic spindle.
Detailed explanation-3: -During the four phases of mitosis, nuclear division occurs in order for one cell to split into two.
