Is it possible to distinguish individual chromosomes after telophase?

No, after telophase (a.k.a. during interphase) the chromosomes entangle as they replicate however it does again become possible for individual chromosomes to be distinguished in prophase as the chromosomes begin to 'coil up' or condense.


During which phase does the chromatin condense into chromosomes?

The chromosomes coil up and condense during prophase


In what stage of mitosis does the chromatin coil and condense to form deeply staining bodies?

The chromosomes condense during prophase, the first stage of both mitosis and meiosis.


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.


Would you see chromosomes durin the synthesis phase of the cell cycle?

Synthesis occurs during Interphase. During Interphase, the genetic material is present as chromatin, a loosely bundled coil in the nucleus. The chromatin does not condense into chromosomes until Prophase. Thus, you would not see chromosomes during synthesis.


Why do chromosomes become more visible during prophase?

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


In a cell long strains of DNA form that coil into chromosomes?

golgy apparatus


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 does prophase do in the cell cycle?

During prophase, the chromatin fibers in the nucleus coil tightly and condense into observable chromosomes. The mitotic spindle then begins to form and the centrosomes move away from each other.


When do chromatin threads appear as chromosomes?

During prophase, chromatin threads condense,coil, shorten and thicken into chromatids, but how do the chromsomes of parent cells turn into the chromatin threads


When the chromosomes coil up and become visible and the centrioles go the opposite sides of the cell?

prophase


What does DNA coil up into when it is ready to divide?

In the nondividing cell, DNA tends to be a loose collection of chromatin. In the run-up to cell division, the DNA will coil itself up into distinct chromosomes.
