Solution:

Anaphase II is the stage when sister chromatids of every chromosome separate and begin to move towards the opposite ends of the cell. Splitting of centromere occurs in this stage. The separation and the movement are due to the shortening of the kinetochore microtubules. Anaphase II precedes telophase II.
