The stage of mitosis at which chromatids separate as independent chromosomes is the Correct Answer Anaphase

The sister chromatids are pairs of identical copies of DNA joined at a point called the centromere. During anaphase, each pair of chromosomes is separated into two identical, independent chromosomes. The chromosomes are separated by a structure called the mitotic spindle.
