Why do chromosomes become more visible during prophase?

Because the chromosomes seem to shorten and thicken prior to dividing, this makes them more visible.


What makes the chromosomes become visible during prophase?

When pro phase begins, the DNA molecules are progressively shortened and condensed by coiling, to form visible chromosomes.


What can you infer about a cell whose chromosomes are not visible?

The chromosomes are not visible.


What cell parts are more visible when a cell is dividing?

When chromosomes are visible?

When is the only time when chromosomes are visible?

You can see a chromosone at all times, however they are most easily visible during mitosis, when the cell is dividing. During this process the chromosomes condense, making them more easily visible.


Do chromosomes become visible and short?

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.
