What two phases of mitosis can chromosomes be seen?

Chromosomes can be distinctly seen during the prophase and metaphase of mitosis. In prophase, chromatin condenses into visible chromosomes, each consisting of two sister chromatids joined at the centromere. During metaphase, the chromosomes align at the cell's equatorial plane, making them easily observable under a microscope.


Can chromosomes be seen clearly after the G2 phase?

Originally: no because G2 phase is the cell growth My Improved answer (copied and pasted from cha cha): Yes, chromosomes can be seen clearly after the G2 phase. Chromosomes vary widely between different organisms. The DNA molecule may be circular or linear, and can be composed of 10,000 to 1,000,000,000
