These days cron and anacron are run as services/timers by systemd.

root@hawk:~# systemctl list-units '*cron*'
  UNIT                LOAD   ACTIVE SUB     DESCRIPTION                                 
  cron.service        loaded active running Regular background program processing daemon
  anacron.timer       loaded active waiting Trigger anacron every hour
  nextcloudcron.timer loaded active waiting Run Nextcloud cron.php every 5 minutes

LOAD   = Reflects whether the unit definition was properly loaded.
ACTIVE = The high-level unit activation state, i.e. generalization of SUB.
SUB    = The low-level unit activation state, values depend on unit type.
3 loaded units listed. Pass --all to see loaded but inactive units, too.
To show all installed unit files use 'systemctl list-unit-files'.
root@hawk:~#
