Detailed explanation-1: -Anaphase. The sister chromatids separate from one another and are pulled towards opposite poles of the cell. The microtubules that are not attached to chromosomes push the two poles of the spindle apart, while the kinetochore microtubules pull the chromosomes towards the poles.
Detailed explanation-2: -Anaphase II: During anaphase II, the centromere splits, freeing the sister chromatids from each other. At this point, spindle fibers begin to shorten, pulling the newly-separated sister chromatids towards opposite ends of the cell.
Detailed explanation-3: -During prophase, the nuclear envelope and nucleolus are dissolved and the chromosomes condense. The centrioles and spindle fibers begin to form at opposite poles of the cell.
Detailed explanation-4: -During anaphase, the sister chromatids separate and begin to migrate to opposite poles of the cell, and a cleavage furrow begins to develop.
