Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
spindle fibers move homologous chromosomes to opposite sides
A
telophase II
B
anaphase I
C
anaphase II
D
metaphase I
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -After the pairs of chromosomes are aligned, anaphase I begins. During this stage, the microtubules, or spindle fibers, pull the homologous chromosomes apart and move them to opposite ends of the cell. Telophase I is next.

Detailed explanation-2: -Anaphase I: In anaphase I, the attachment of the spindle fibers is complete. The homologous chromosomes are pulled apart and move towards opposite ends of the cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -During anaphase I, the homologous chromosomes are pulled toward opposite poles of the cell. During anaphase I, the homologous chromosomes are pulled toward opposite poles of the cell.

Detailed explanation-4: -During anaphase I, the homologous chromosome pairs separate and are pulled to opposite poles of the cell by spindle fibers attached to the centrioles. This first cell division process is completed during telophase I.

Detailed explanation-5: -Anaphase I begins when homologous chromosomes separate. The nuclear envelope reforms and nucleoli reappear. The chromosomes coil up, the nuclear membrane begins to disintegrate, and the centrosomes begin moving apart. Spindle fibers form and sister chromatids align to the equator of the cell.
