    Option a is the one, that is true.

    Sister chromatids separate in anaphase of mitosis and anaphase Il of meiosis

    Explanation:

    After the interphase in the cell division cycle, the mitosis process begins, which is composed of 4 phases, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. The prophase occurs when the chromatin is condensed and the mitotic spindle is formed, the metaphase the chromosomes align along the cell equator, in the anaphase the separation of the sister chromatids occurs and in the telophase finally the heterochromatin is converted into euchromatin and the envelope is formed nuclear cell.

    Meiosis, which is the cell division of germ cells, also has the same phases but they occur on two occasions: prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I and telophase I for meiosis I and for meiosis II, prophase II, metaphase II, anaphase II and telophase II. In the anaphase I the homologous chromosomes are separated, they are condensed in the prophase II while in anaphase II the chromatids are separated.
