Anaphase is a phase of mitosis and meiosis following metaphase, in which sister chromatids separate into two new nuclei.
Sister Chromatids: These are identical copies formed by DNA replication that are joined together at their centromeres until they separate during anaphase.
Cytokinesis: This is when cytoplasm divides after mitosis or meiosis, resulting in separate cells.
Cell Cycle: The series of events that take place in a cell leading to its division and duplication.
