They are visible during mitosis. During Prophase the DNA is compacted into Chromosomes while the intermediate filaments that make up the Nuclear Envelope are phosphorylated and it falls apart. Leaving behind the chromosomes, very easy to see throughout prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase (Until the nucleus reforms in both daughter cells and the chromosomes de-condense). Chromosomes are easy to see by definition, their name in greek literally means colored bodies, this mostly because the guy that saw them first had no idea what they were.
What else can I help you with?
What happens to the chromosomes near the end of the process of mitosis?
Mitosis is the process of cell division in which the chromosomes condense and the spindle is assembled. In each phase the chromosomes do different things: prophase: during this first phase of mitosis, the parent chromosomes become compacted and the spindle begins to form creating an X-shape when looked at through a microscope; prometaphase: the nuclear membrane becomes many small vesicles during this phase. The spindle microtubules reach out until they connect the chromosomes to their kinetochore and then a sort of "tug-of-war" happens while the chromosomes bounce between the two poles; metaphase: the chromosomes align along the equator of the cell as they become connected to the spindle poles; anaphase: the chromosomes work their way into becoming individual/independent chromosomes as they begin to find their place near the poles; and telophase: the chromosomes find their poles, the spindle disbands, and each chromosome gets its new nuclear membrane.
What stage during the cell cycle are organelles and chromosomes copied?
i think its telophase
What is the function of the centriole pair?
It organizes the microtubules in mitosis. The microtubules move the chromosomes around the cell during mitosis, most importantly lining the chromosomes up at the metaphase plate in metaphase so that they can split up into the two daughter cells.
What event occurs during metaphase?
The chromosomes attach to a spindle fiber across the equator of the cell.
What occurs in mitosis that gives the new cell identical DNA?
There are several things that occur in mitosis that gives the new cell identical DNA. The chromosomes have to be doubled first and then division of the nucleus takes place to make new identical cells.
When does a chromosome first become visible in mitosis?
During the Prophase. :)Chromosomes become highly condensed.They are visible to light microscope,not naked eye
Chromosomes first become visible during which phase of mitosis?
They first become visible during prophase of mitosis.
When during the cell cycle are chromotomes visible?
Chromosomes are visible during cell division, specifically during mitosis and meiosis. This is when the chromosomes condense and become more distinguishable. In interphase, the chromosomes are less condensed and not easily visible as individual structures.
The phase of mitosis during which chromosomes become visible and the centrioles seperate from one another is?
Prophase
What is one of the two strands of a chromosomes that become visible during meiosis or mitosis?
daughter strands
What is the first clue that mitoosis has begun?
The first clue that mitosis has begun is the condensation of genetic material into visible chromosomes. This occurs during the prophase stage of mitosis when the chromosomes become visible under a microscope.
When do chromosomes become visible in the nucleus of a cell?
Chromosomes become visible in the nucleus of a cell during cell division, specifically during the prophase stage of mitosis or meiosis when the DNA condenses and coils tightly. This allows the chromosomes to be distinguished under a microscope.
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.
The phase of mitosis during wich chromosomes become visible and the centrioles separate from one another is?
Prophase.
When does DNA become visible?
DNA is never visible to a naked eye but you can see chromosomes filled with DNA in mitosis during prophase.
Which phase do chromosomes first become visible?
Interphase as they become decondenced
The phase during mitosis in which DNA separates into pairs of chromosomes is?
The phase during mitosis in which DNA separates into pairs of chromosomes is called prophase. During prophase, the chromosomes condense and become visible as distinct structures before the actual separation occurs during later stages of mitosis.
