Why are karyotypes prepared using cells in mitosis rather than cells in interphase explain.?
in mitosis (specifically Prophase) the chromosomes are dense and therefore visible for a karyotype. during interphase they do not have to be ready to be pulled apart so they are not wound tightly.
What shows chromosomes present in a cell?
A karyotype is a picture of all the chromosomes in a person's cells. A human has 46 chromosomes in all but sex cells.
How many cells are in a karotype?
A karyotype is the number and type of chromosomes within the nucleus of a cell of a species. Given that definition, the karyotype is within the cell. There can be no cells within the karyotype.
Is interphase of meiosis different from interphase of mitosis?
no. the activities within the cells are the same
What phase does preparation for cell division occur?
during interphase the cells prepare for the divsion and the DNA replicates and chromosomes form

What would happen if you tried to make a karyotype from isolated mature red blood cells?
You must be in genetics lab... Red blood cells do not have a nucleus therefore a karyotype cannot be assembled. The chromosomal preparations cannot be performed on the red blood cells. Thus, the reason they use white blood cells.

Do cancer cells have a long or short interphase?
In the cell cycle of cancer cells interphase is still the longest phase. However, interphase is shorter in cancer cells than in normal cells.
Why was if difficult to find interphase cells in the whitefish blastula slide?
This is because the cells divide so rapidly that Interphase is such a short period of time; thus, few cells are in Interphase.Read more: Why_was_if_difficult_to_find_interphase_cells_in_the_whitefish_blastula_slide
How many cells are in interphase?
there are 24 in a cellular division interphase, so in a normal satisfactory interphase, the conclusion comes out to be 48.
Which type of cell is always in interphase?
The cells that would be constantly in interphase would be the cells that don't really work anymore.. that are not replicating anymore.
What stage of the cells life occupies most of its life?
Interphase. The longest part of interphase is the G1 phase.
Is interphase of meiosis different from interphase of mitosis?
no. the activities within the cells are the same
What portion of the cells life cycle does not involve cell division?
interphase
What type of cells can you not use for a karyotype?
Any undergoing mitosis
