∙ 12y agoYes - DNA is only organised into highly-compact chromosomes when the cell is preparing to divide.
During interphase DNA is found as nucleofilament (30nm fibre), which is much less compact than chromosomes.

The process of dividing one cell nucleus into two cell nuclei is called?
the process of dividing one cell nucleus into two nuclei is called mitosis.
Where the cell are the chromosomes located?
the cytoplasm
What is the visual of all nucleus chromosomes called?
Karyotype
DNA in the nucleus is found in the structure called what?
Chromosomes
DNA in the nucleus is found in structure called?
chromosomes
What is it called when DNA is scrunched up in dividing cells?
Chromatin, if "scrunched up" refers to uncoiled. It is chromosomes not chromatin
What is uncoiled genetic material?
Uncoiled strands of DNA are called chromosomes. It is a single piece of DNA that contains a large number of nucleotide sequences.
When the DNA in a cell is uncoiled and spread throughout the nucleus it is called?
The most tightly-coiled form of DNA is a chromosome.
It is not easy to observe individual chromosomes during interphase because?
the DNA has not been duplicated yet. they have uncoiled to form long, thin strands. they leave the nucleus and are scattered throughout the cell. homologous chromosomes do not pair up until division starts.

What is the importance of chromosomes?
In the nucleus of each cell, the DNA molecule (which determines traits) is packaged into thread-like structures called chromosomes. Each chromosome is made up of DNA tightly coiled many times around proteins called histones that support its structure. Chromosomes are not visible in the cell's nucleus-not even under a microscope-when the cell is not dividing. Chromosomes are not always visible because they usually are uncoiled inside the nucleus as loose strands called chromatin. When it is time for the cell toperform meiosis or mitosis, they condense and wrap up tightly. The tightly wound DNA is the chromosome (3). Most of what researchers know about chromosomes was learned by observing chromosomes during cell division (1). your welcome :) have a nice day!
