To answer the question regarding the stages of the cell cycle where specific events occur, we can break it down as follows: 1. **Chromosomes are moved to the spindle equator**: - This event occurs during **Metaphase**. In this stage, chromosomes align at the metaphase plate (equatorial plane) in preparation for separation. 2. **Centromere splits and chromatids separate**: - This event occurs during **Anaphase**. In this stage, the centromeres that hold the sister chromatids together split, allowing the chromatids to move towards opposite poles of the cell. ...
