If you are referring to prophase of mitosis, the cell's chromatin is condensing into organized chromosomes, visible under the light microscope. Spindle fibers are attaching to the centromeres and the centrioles are moving to the poles of the cell.

The two phases of prophase during meiosis are different though.

Crossing over occurs during Prophase I of meiosis.


What changes occur to the cell during prophase?

During prophase, the cell undergoes several changes, including condensation of chromatin into visible chromosomes, breakdown of the nuclear envelope, assembly of the mitotic spindles, and movement of the centrioles to opposite poles of the cell. These changes prepare the cell for the subsequent stages of mitosis.

No, crossing over occurs during prophase 1 of meiosis, not prophase 2.


Chromatin threads change to dense rods during the process of?

Chromatin changes to thick rods called chromosomes during anaphase. During anaphase the centromeres divide and are pulled apart by the spindle fibers. They then move to opposite ends of the poles.
