Which statement describes what occurs during anaphase in an animal cell?

Question

A Chromosomes group together and a cleavage furrow forms.
в Chromosomes condense and spindle fibers attach to the centriole.
c Chromosomes separate and are pulled to opposite poles of the cell.
• Chromosomes become tightly coiled and move to the middle of the cell.

Answer 1

The correct statement that describes what occurs during anaphase in an animal cell is:

C: Chromosomes separate and are pulled to opposite poles of the cell.

During anaphase, sister chromatids are pulled apart by the spindle fibers and move toward opposite ends (poles) of the cell.
