Question
in which phase of meiosis do centromeres split? telophase i prophase ii anaphase ii
Centromeres split during anaphase II of meiosis. In anaphase II, the sister chromatids separate at the centromere and are pulled to opposite poles of the cell. This is distinct from anaphase I where homologous chromosomes separate but centromeres remain intact. Telophase is the stage of nuclear re - formation and cytokinesis preparation, and prophase I is the initial stage of meiosis with chromosome condensation and synapsis.
