Question

during anaphase ii, the separated chromatids are now referred to as:
synapse
homologs
chromosomes
tetrads

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In meiosis, during Anaphase II, the sister chromatids separate. Once separated, each chromatid is now considered a chromosome (as they have their own centromere and are independent). Synapse is the pairing of homologs (not related to separated chromatids here). Homologs are homologous chromosomes (paired in meiosis I, not what separated chromatids become). Tetrads are pairs of homologous chromosomes (formed in prophase I, not relevant here). So the separated chromatids in Anaphase II are referred to as chromosomes.

Answer:

chromosomes (the option with "chromosomes" text)
