Question
Kinetochores of sister chromatids are maximally separated at: a. interphase b. prophase c. anaphase d. telophase
Correct Answer
Option C is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
Kinetochores are protein structures at the centromeres where spindle fibers attach. Sister chromatids have separate kinetochores. They are maximally separated during anaphase when the chromatids are pulled apart and move to opposite poles. By telophase, they have already separated.
Hint
This happens when the copies are actively moving away.
