select all of the phases during which homologous chromosomes are separated from one another.

a. anaphase i
b. anaphase ii
c. anaphase during mitosis

1 answer

Homologous chromosomes are separated during the following phases:

a. Anaphase I - In meiosis I, homologous chromosomes are separated and moved to opposite poles of the cell.

b. Anaphase II - In meiosis II, sister chromatids (which are already copies of each other) are separated, but this does not involve homologous chromosomes separating.

c. Anaphase during mitosis - In mitosis, sister chromatids are separated, but again, this does not involve homologous chromosomes.

So, the answer is: a. Anaphase I is the phase during which homologous chromosomes are separated from one another.
