Does karyotype shows DNA in its choromatin form?

A karyotype displays the complete set of chromosomes in an organism, typically during the metaphase stage of cell division when chromosomes are most condensed and visible. At this stage, DNA is not in its chromatin form; instead, it is tightly packed into distinct, recognizable structures called chromosomes. Thus, a karyotype represents DNA in its highly condensed form rather than its relaxed chromatin state.
