when do the homologous chromosomes separate during mitosis?
52058
In metaphase I, the tetrads line themselves up at the metaphase plate and homologous pairs orient themselves randomly. In anaphase I, centromeres break down and homologous chromosomes separate. In telophase I, chromosomes move to opposite poles; during cytokinesis the cell separates into two haploid cells.

Meiosis is a way sex cells (gametes) divide. ... In meiosis I, homologous chromosomes separate, while in meiosis II, sister chromatids separate. Meiosis II produces 4 haploid daughter cells, whereas meiosis I produces 2 diploid daughter cells. Genetic recombination (crossing over) only occurs in meiosis I.

During this process, sister chromatids separate from each other and move to opposite poles of the cell. This happens in four phases, called prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. Cytokinesis is the final stage of cell division, during which the cytoplasm splits into two and two daughter cells form.

A pair of homologous chromosomes, each consisting of a single chromatid in a daughter cell at the end of mitosis, has alleles from the father and from the mother, and counts as 2 chromosomes.
133522
In prophase I of meiosis, the homologous chromosomes form the tetrads. In metaphase I, these pairs line up at the midway point between the two poles of the cell to form the metaphase plate.
211618
In meiosis I, homologous chromosomes separate resulting in a reduction of ploidy. Each daughter cell has only 1 set of chromosomes. Meiosis II, splits the sister chromatids apart. ... These four daughter cells only have half the number of chromosomes? of the parent cell - they are haploid.

In Metaphase 1, paired homologous chromosomes line up along the equator of the cell. However, in mitosis and Metaphase 2, it is sister chromatids that line up along the equator of the cell.

The stages of mitosis are prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. Do homologous chromosomes pair up? No, homologous chromosomes act independently from one another during alignment in metaphase and chromatid segregation in anaphase.

In mitosis, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase occur once. Chromosomes condense and the centrosomes begin to form an early spindle. Meiotic prophase I is much longer that mitotic prophase. During prophase I homologous chromosomes make contacts with each other called chiasmata and “crossing over” occurs.

How do homologous chromosomes differ from sister chromatids? Homologous chromosomes are the two chromosomes that make a chromosome pair. A sister chromatid is the duplicate of each of the pair of homologous chromosomes. Each of the chromosomes that make up the homologous pair is derived from each parent.

What happens during mitosis? During mitosis, a eukaryotic cell undergoes a carefully coordinated nuclear division that results in the formation of two genetically identical daughter cells. Mitosis itself consists of five active steps, or phases: prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

Nondisjunction can occur during anaphase of mitosis, meiosis I, or meiosis II. During anaphase, sister chromatids (or homologous chromosomes for meiosis I), will separate and move to opposite poles of the cell, pulled by microtubules. In nondisjunction, the separation fails to occur.
751153
During prophase I, the homologous chromosomes condense and become visible as the x shape we know, pair up to form a tetrad, and exchange genetic material by crossing over. ... In telophase I, chromosomes move to opposite poles; during cytokinesis the cell separates into two haploid cells.
12052
Homologous chromosomes do not function the same in mitosis as they do in meiosis. ... Instead, the replicants, or sister chromatids, will line up along the metaphase plate and then separate in the same way as meiosis II - by being pulled apart at their centromeres by nuclear mitotic spindles.
507392
A full set of sister chromatids is created during the synthesis (S) phase of interphase, when all the chromosomes in a cell are replicated. The two sister chromatids are separated from each other into two different cells during mitosis or during the second division of meiosis.
960128
During anaphase, each pair of chromosomes is separated into two identical, independent chromosomes. The chromosomes are separated by a structure called the mitotic spindle. ... The separated chromosomes are then pulled by the spindle to opposite poles of the cell.
997599
In fact, the term sister chromatid is only used during the parts of cell division when the structures are in that X shape or when the two copies are connected by a centromere. On the other hand, a pair of homologous chromosomes consists of two non-identical copies of a chromosome, one from each parent.
