What else can I help you with?
Is a nucleolus a animal or plant cell?
Nucleolus is in nucleus.Nucleus can be seen in eukariyotes.
What is the small dot-like structure inside the nucleus?
The small dot-like structure inside the nucleus is the nucleolus. It is responsible for producing ribosomes, which are essential for protein synthesis. The nucleolus is not surrounded by a membrane and can often be seen as a distinct structure within the nucleus.
Cells nucleus during interphase?
DNA is always present in every stage of the cell cycle...reproducing it is the whole purpose of the cell cycle! In interphase, there are three phases: the cell grows (G1), duplicates each strand of DNA (S), and gets ready for mitosis (M). During the first part of interphase the chromosomes are long and thin, and single-stranded, making them very hard to see without a very powerful microscope. During the last 2 stages of interphase, the DNA is duplicated but is still long and thin. It is only in the prophase stage of mitosis that they are condensed enough to often be seen with a "normal" microscope on high power (400x) . By the end of mitosis, the doubled-chromosomes have been pulled apart and into opposite ends of the parent cell. When the cell has finished dividing, each "daughter cell" has the original number of single-stranded chromosomes. The chromosomes "uncoil", and the cell matures during G1 phase of interphase. Many people believe that DNA and/or Chromosomes (Chromosomes are made of DNA, remember.) are only present during mitosis. They just get fatter during mitosis by coiling tighter. Thus they are more easily seen. BUT.. just because you don't see them in interphase doesn't mean they aren't there!
What are some of the characteristics of the nucleolus?
The nucleolus is a prominent structure in the nucleus, primarily responsible for ribosome biogenesis. It is composed of proteins and RNA, and is involved in processing and assembling ribosomal subunits. The nucleolus is not membrane-bound and can be seen under a microscope as a dense region.
What does DNA pictures under a microscope?
That is when the DNA is condensed, at which time it is called chromosome.
Can the nucleus and the nucleolus be seen during inter-phase?
yes
Is a nucleolus a animal or plant cell?
Nucleolus is in nucleus.Nucleus can be seen in eukariyotes.
Can chromosomes be seen only during cell division?
No, chromosomes can also be seen in non-dividing cells during interphase under a microscope. In interphase, chromosomes are less condensed and appear as long, thin, thread-like structures within the nucleus. During cell division, chromosomes condense further to become more visible as distinct structures.
What is a ball of DNA that can be seen in the later stages of interphase?
Centrioles
What stage does the cell spend most if its time in the cell cycle?
Interphase, which is the first stage in the cell cycle
Why do some scientists not think interphase is a phase of mitosis?
Some scientists do not consider interphase a phase of mitosis because interphase is the stage of the cell cycle where the cell prepares for mitosis, rather than actively dividing. During interphase, the cell undergoes growth, DNA replication, and preparation for division, but it does not involve the processes of chromosome alignment, separation, or cytokinesis that characterize mitosis. Therefore, interphase is seen as a preparatory phase rather than a part of the actual mitotic process.

Why are individual chromosomes more difficult to see during inter phase than during mitosis?
The individual chromosomes cannot be seen in interphase because they haven't been condensed yet. That's what happens during mitosis so that it is easier to seperate them into new daughter cells. While in interphase, its called chromatin.

What happens to the centrioles during interphase?
moving apart
Which three phases are individual chromosomes no longer visible?
During interphase, chromosomes are not visible as distinct structures. Instead, the DNA is in the form of chromatin, a less condensed state where individual chromosomes cannot be seen.
Is the nucleolus found in a plant cell and a animal cell?
It is in both cells. It is in the nucleus.
