Chromosomes replicate during cell division, so are present as a new cell forms.
Chromosomes appear in chromatid pairs during the cell cycle during the S phase of interphase.
Chromosomes appear as threadlike bodies during cell division, specifically during the metaphase stage of mitosis or meiosis. This is when the chromosomes condense and become visible under a microscope.
chromosomes appear as packets of four chromatids during anaphase. This is when the chromatids start to move and separate in preparation of the creation of four cells.
Chromosomes exchange genetic information through the process of genetic recombination, specifically during meiosis. This process involves the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes, resulting in genetic variation among offspring.
Chromosomes are attached to spindle fibers during the metaphase phase of the cell division process.
Homologous chromosomes pair up during the process of cell division in a stage called prophase I of meiosis.
Chromosomes form during cell division, specifically during the process of mitosis. During mitosis, the chromosomes condense and line up before being separated into two daughter cells.
Chromosomes are copied.
nondijunction
Yes, chromosomes become visible and appear shorter during the process of cell division. This is because they condense and coil up tightly in order to be more manageable during cell division. As a result, they become visible under a microscope as distinct structures.
The centrosomes.
During meiosis, the homologous chromosomes come together during prophase I. Pairs of homologous chromosomes align during a process called synapsis and form a tetrad (four sister chromatids, two from each pair of homologous chromosomes). During synapsis, crossing over may occur, during which homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material.
