What else can I help you with?
Is the DNA condensed in all or part of which phases?
DNA is condensed during Prophase, Anaphase and Telophase. Aka, M phase
What diffuse threads containing DNA and protein?
Chromatin is the diffuse combination of DNA and proteins found inside the nucleus of a cell. It consists of DNA wrapped around histone proteins, forming nucleosomes that are further organized into higher-order structures to compact DNA in the nucleus. This condensed structure helps regulate gene expression and protect the genetic material within the cell.
What is the condensed form of DNA referred as?
The highly condensed forms of DNA (and proteins) are known as chromosomes.
Why cant you see the chromosomes during interphase?
In interphase, the DNA has just replicated and exists as loosely coiled chromatins. They have not yet condensed enough to be the form of a chromosome. In the next stage, prophase, the DNA will shorten and condense into the easily recognizable chromosome structure.
What are the thin threads in a nucleus containing DNA?
Those tiny threads are called chloro- skeletons, and they are fibers in cytoplasm, or your DNA to keep the cell membrane from collapsing, or tightening. I guess you could say that there are the braces of a cell!
In interphase the DNA in the form of loose threads called?
In interphase, DNA exists in the form of chromatin which consists of loosely packed threads of DNA along with proteins. This allows for easy access to the genetic material for processes like gene expression and DNA replication.

What do we condense DNA into before replication occurs?
Before replication occurs, DNA is condensed into chromosomes.
Are chromosomes condensed during interphase?
No, chromosomes are not condensed during interphase. They are in a less condensed form and are actively involved in processes such as DNA replication and gene expression.
What forrm do you find DNA in when the cell is dividing?
It is condensed into chromosomes.

DNA molecules that are formed into structures?
chromatin threads
Is DNA condensed in g2 phase?
Yes, DNA is condensed in G2 phase. During G2 phase of the cell cycle, DNA is already replicated and has undergone condensation to form distinct chromosomes. This preparation ensures that the cell is ready for mitosis.
What type of molecules are in DNA?
DNA is a molecule. There are also a bunch of proteins/molecules called histones that organise the DNA molecule into a condensed state.

Those tiny threads are called chloro- skeletons, and they are fibers in cytoplasm, or your DNA to keep the cell membrane from collapsing, or tightening. I guess you could say that there are the braces of a cell!
