chromatin
In eukaryotic organisms, genetic material in the form on DNA (which in turn are in the form of chromatin during interphase) is stored in the nucleus of the cell.

The amount of genetic material in a cell remains the same after the S phase of interphase. While DNA replication occurs during the S phase, the total amount of genetic material doubles, but the number of chromosomes and the overall genetic content remain constant.
In interphase I, a process called crossing over occurs during prophase I of meiosis. This is when homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material, creating new combinations of alleles, leading to genetic variation among offspring.
The phase in which there is a duplication of genetic material is called the S phase of the cell cycle. During this phase, the DNA in the cell is replicated, ensuring that each daughter cell receives an identical copy of the genetic material.
In eukaryotic organisms, genetic material in the form on DNA (which in turn are in the form of chromatin during interphase) is stored in the nucleus of the cell.
The genetic material replicates during the S phase of the cell cycle, which occurs before mitosis. This phase is known as DNA synthesis where the chromosomes are duplicated to ensure each daughter cell receives a complete set of genetic material.

The nucleus is intact and the genetic material has the appearance of chromatin.

When the cell is splitting in two. Here is the order: the cell grows to twice its size, makes a copy of its genetic material, slices itself in the middle, and finally splits into two equal cells.
During mitosis, cells are typically smaller in size compared to interphase due to the condensation of genetic material into distinct chromosomes. As the chromosomes become more compact, the cell size decreases to facilitate the orderly segregation of genetic material into the daughter cells.
During interphase, the cell prepares for division by replicating its DNA and organelles. This ensures that each daughter cell receives a complete set of genetic material and necessary cellular components during mitosis or meiosis.
