Which one of the following occurs during anaphase of mitosis in a healthy human liver cell?
1. Chromatin condenses so that the chromosomes are visible under the microscope.
2. Centrioles migrate to opposite poles of the cell and help to assemble the spindle fibres.
3. DNA replicates so that each chromosome is made up of two sister chromatids.
4. Sister chromatids are pulled by the spindle fibres towards opposite poles of the cell.
