Strictly speaking, the chromosomes are not copied during mitosis but already before cell division takes place. This phase is called INTERPHASE and is again divided into three phases, G1 (first gap), S (synthesis), and G2 (second gap). The replication of chromosomes only happens in the S phase.

What do chromosomes do before mitosis?
Before mitosis begins, the chromosomes in a cell replicate. This occurs during the S (synthesis) phase. Chromosomes need to replicate so that when the cell divides at the end of mitosis, the daughter cells each recieve a copy of the chromosomes.
What phase is when chromosomal material replicates?
Chromosomes are replicated during DNA replication, which occurs during interphase.
What is the phase of mitosis if chromosomes attach to the spindle fibers?
Metaphase is when chromosomes attatch to spindle fibers in the phase of mitosis.
In what stage do centrioles replicate?
Centrosomes replicate during the S phase of the CELL CYCLE not mitosis. Mitosis is one stage of the cell cycle. Replication does not happen during mitosis(M phase). It happens during the S phase. In fact, the opposite happens chromosomes are consdensed and packaged in preparation for splitting.
What part of mitosis when the chromosomes replicate and become organized?
Chromosomal re-segregation.

What phase is when chromosomal material replicates?
Chromosomes are replicated during DNA replication, which occurs during interphase.
When do chromosomes replicate?
Chromosomes replicate in the first stage of mitosis or meiosis-interphase
The chromosomes do this in preparation for mitosis?
replicate or duplicate
What is the phase of mitosis if chromosomes attach to the spindle fibers?
Metaphase is when chromosomes attatch to spindle fibers in the phase of mitosis.
Does DNA replicate in mitosis?
no DNA replicates before mitosis. It replicates in the S phase of inter phase

What part of mitosis when the chromosomes replicate and become organized?
Chromosomal re-segregation.
When do chromosomes (DNA) replicate?
mitosis is the process by which the DNA of a cell is copied, so chromosomes replicated throughout the process
Which phase of mitosis is the longest and why?
Interphase is the longest because 90% of mitosis occurs in this stage and it is when the cells replicate.
Which phase of mitosis is where the chromosomes are located at the equator of the cell?
Metaphase is the third phase of mitosis, when the chromosomes line up at the equator of the cell.
What mitosis phase are chromosomes not visible?
Interphase and Telophase
