Answer 1

Based on the description provided, it indicates that there are 19 cells with 2 groups of chromatids in the process of separating. This stage corresponds to anaphase, where the sister chromatids are being pulled apart to opposite sides of the cell.

Therefore, the number of cells in anaphase is 19.
