in which phase of mitosis are chromosomes, separated, and pulled to opposite sides of the cell

Answer 1

Chromosomes are separated and pulled to opposite sides of the cell during anaphase, which is the third phase of mitosis. During anaphase, the sister chromatids are pulled apart by the spindle fibers and move toward opposite poles of the cell. This separation ensures that each daughter cell will receive an identical set of chromosomes when the cell divides.
