Chromatin: Long strands of DNA, used when copying DNA to make RNA to be read by ribosomes to make proteins.
Chromosomes: Two chromatids side by side in a "X" shape, it's formed when a number of your DNA is packed together.
The phase where DNA is spread out as chromatin and the nuclear membrane is visible is the interphase. This is the period when the cell is not actively dividing, but preparing for division by duplicating its DNA and organelles.
In a cell, the tangles of long strands of DNA form the
When DNA shortens and thickens, it is called chromatin. Chromatin is a complex of DNA and proteins that condenses to form chromosomes during cell division.
Chromatin is the uncoiled form of DNA that resembles a thread-like structure. It consists of DNA wrapped around proteins called histones, which help organize and compact the DNA into a condensed form. When DNA is uncoiled and in the form of chromatin, it allows for easier access and transcription of the genetic information stored in the DNA.

Interphase (synthesis)
The nucleus of the cell is filled with DNA in the form of chromatin.
During interphase the DNA is in loose form. It makes the chromatin inside the nucleus. The chromatin allow access to RNA and DNA polymerases that transcribe and replicate DNA.During interphase the DNA is in loose form. It makes the chromatin inside the nucleus.

Loose or uncoiled chromosomes are actually DNA in the form of chromatin. Chromatin is a complex of DNA and proteins that helps organize and condense the DNA into a structure that can fit inside the cell's nucleus.

In a nondividing cell, the complex of protein and DNA is called chromatin. Chromatin consists of DNA packaged with histone proteins to form nucleosomes, which can further condense to form higher-order structures such as chromosomes.
