Chromosomes.

When the cell is dividing itself.
dividing
Mitosis is the dividing of cells where the new cell that is created has the same number of chromosomes as the original cell.
It is condensed into chromosomes.
Karyotype
46
spindle fibers
The entire cell is dividing just like mitosis except there will be 23 chromosomes instead of 46
One quick way to tell whether or not a cell is dividing is to look at the number of chromosomes. If the number is doubled then it is dividing.
Chromosomes are structures in the nucleus of the cell which contain DNA and can best be seen when the cell is dividing.
