**Question 4: Chromosome Sketching in Anaphase**

Consider a diploid cell that has a total of six chromosomes (three homologous pairs). Sketch the chromosomes in the indicated stages. Label homologous chromosomes and sister chromatids.

a. **Anaphase of Mitosis**
b. **Anaphase I of Meiosis**

**Explanation:**

- **Anaphase of Mitosis**: During this stage, sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite poles of the cell. Each chromatid becomes an individual chromosome. The sketch should show three pairs of sister chromatids separating, with individual chromatids moving towards opposite poles.

- **Anaphase I of Meiosis**: During this stage, homologous chromosomes are separated, rather than sister chromatids. The sketch should depict homologous pairs being pulled to opposite poles. Each chromosome in a homologous pair consists of two sister chromatids bound together.

Clearly label the homologous chromosomes and sister chromatids in your sketches.
