Distinguish between the anaphase of mitosis and the anaphase $I$ of meiosis.
(N/A)
| Anaphase of mitosis | Anaphase $I$ of meiosis |
|---|---|
| Anaphase is the stage during which the centromere splits and the sister chromatids separate. | During anaphase $I$,the homologous chromosomes separate,while the sister chromatids remain attached at their centromeres. |
| The separated chromatids (now daughter chromosomes) move toward the opposite poles. | The homologous chromosomes move toward the opposite poles. |
| These chromosomes are genetically identical to each other. | The chromosomes moving to opposite poles are genetically different due to crossing over. |
