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.

When can you see chromosomes under light microscope?
only at the time of cell division in the metaphase and in the anaphase the chromosome are visible. because at this time the chromatin get aggregate and form the thick chromosome which are visible under microscope.
What can you infer about a cell whose chromosomes are not visible?
The chromosomes are not visible.
When during the cell cycle are chromotomes visible?
During Interphase.......NO During Mitosis........YES * assuming you mean visible through a microscope
Are chromosomes visible when stained?
Chromosomes can be seen using a light microscope (LM). Mitotic cells can be easily visualised. The study of chromosomes using LM is termed Karyology, the chromosomes are prepared by a variety of techniques and analyses can be performed.
DNA coils tightly during division and assembles into visible?
Chromosomes
When chromosomes are visible?
Chromosomes are visible during prophase. Chromosomes are only visible in cells during the cell division because the DNA and protein that the chromosomes are made of are spread throughout the nucleus.

Chromosomes are clearly visible only when a cell is?
dividing
What can you infer about a cell whose chromosomes are not visible?
The chromosomes are not visible.
When are Chromosomes not visible?
In interphase the chromosomes are not yet visible but become visible in prophase
Why do you need to count chromosomes during mitosis?
It is possible to count chromosomes only during vell division (mitosis or meiosis). This is because when the cell is not dividing the chromosomes are in an uncoiled, extended state and are not visible under the microscope. During cell division the chromosomes coil up, becoming shorter and thicker and so visible. At this time they can be counted.
What are only visible when a cell is preparing to divide?
When a cell is preparing to divide, the chromosomes coil so that they become visible.
What are chromosomeswhere and when they are visible in the cell?
Chromosomes contain tightly-packed DNA, and are visible only when the cell is preparing to replicate (before mitosis/meiosis).
What are the importance of chromosomes?
chromosomes are filamentous structures which are present in the nucleus as chromatin reticulum and are visible only during cell division..this is what i know about choromos..lol
When during the cell cycle are chromotomes visible?
During Interphase.......NO During Mitosis........YES * assuming you mean visible through a microscope
Why do chromosomes become more visible during prophase?
Because the chromosomes seem to shorten and thicken prior to dividing, this makes them more visible.
Are chromosomes visible when stained?
Chromosomes can be seen using a light microscope (LM). Mitotic cells can be easily visualised. The study of chromosomes using LM is termed Karyology, the chromosomes are prepared by a variety of techniques and analyses can be performed.
