That is a good question but is there any scientific theories backing up this statement?

What structure will the chromatin become in mitosis?
The chromatin in the cell becomes chromosomes in prophase, the first stage of mitosis. The chromatin coils tightly together to form into separate chromosome strands during this phase.
What is the phase where chromation condenses form to chromosomes?
The cell's chromatin condenses into chromosomes during prophase. In contrast, telophase is where the chromosomes loosen to form chromatins.
What is the relationship between chromatin and chromosomes?
chromatin is the diffuse form chromosomes take in the nucleus of a cell when it is not dividing.
Before mitosis or meiosis DNA coils into what?
Before mitosis and meiosis, DNA is loose in the form of chromatin, then it coils into chromosomes right before the mitosis and meiosis.
When a cell is not dividing chromosomes form long thin fibers?
It forms long thin fibers called chromatin
What does Chromatin do in the nucleus of a cell?
Chromatin is within the nucleus of eukaryotic cells.There are two main types of chromatin:heterochromatineuchromatinChromatin deals with DNA and functions to:controlstrengthencondense
Where in the cell is chromomsoes located?
The chromosomes, in their chromatin form generally, are located in the organelle called the nucleus.
Where is the chromatin in a cell?
Chromatin is always present in a cell. The term "chromatin" refers to the "relaxed" form of chromosomes when the cell is not dividing.In a nutshell:Just prior to mitosis,(the S-phase of the cell cycle), the cell makes a copy of each chromosome which is joined to the original. It is in the first step of mitosis- "Prophase" that the chromatin condenses by coiling up even tighter, and getting fatter- forming the familiar "X" we see in drawings and in our textbooks.As mitosis progresses, the fat X-shaped chromosome is pulled apart, each half going to a different side of the cell. The cell now constricts down the center, and splits in half (M stage) , forming two cells. Each cell should have the same number of chromosomes that the original "parent cell" had. The chromosomes relax again, the cell grows (G1), duplicates the chromosomes (S), prepares for mitosis (G2), then divides (M). Ad infinitum.
What does the chromatin material get organised into during cell division?
Chromosomes form when the chromatin condenses in mitosis
What is Chromatin's?
Chromatin is found inside the nucleus of animal and plant cells. Chromatin stains easily and thus from this fact it gets its name, Chromatin means 'Coloured material'. Chromatin is basically coils of DNA (Deoxyribonucleicacid) bound to protein called histone. Chromosomes during the cycle of Interphase, take form of chromatin. Chromatin condenses during cell division to form the Chromosomes. Chromatin usually loosens up and scatters and is called euchromatin and some donot loosen up and stay tightly coiled, called heterochromatin.Hope this explanation helps. Reference is from the book Biological Sciences by Soper.Chromatin is the combination or complex of DNA and proteins that make up the contents of the nucleus of a cell.
What is chromatin and its function?
Chromatin is a complex of nucleic acids and proteins, primarily histones, in the cell nucleus that stains readily with basic dyes and condenses to form chromosomes during cell division.
What are the long strands in the nucleus called?
In a cell, the tangles of long strands of DNA form the
