Because the chromosomes seem to shorten and thicken prior to dividing, this makes them more visible.
The chromosomes in a cell's nucleus are only visible during the part of the cell cycle known as prophase. Prophase is the stage of mitosis in which chromatin condensation occurs.
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.
Humans have 46 chromosomes in prophase, which consists of 23 pairs of chromosomes. During prophase, the chromosomes become more condensed and visible as they prepare for cell division.
during prophase
Chromosomes condense and become thicker rod-like structures during the prophase stage of cell division, specifically during prophase I of meiosis and prophase of mitosis. This condensation is necessary for the chromosomes to be visible under a microscope and for proper segregation during cell division.
During the Prophase. :)Chromosomes become highly condensed.They are visible to light microscope,not naked eye
Interphase as they become decondenced
During Prophase
Chromosomes are visible during the prophase stage of meiosis, specifically during prophase I. This is when the chromosomes condense and become visible under a microscope.
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.
Chromosomes coil up and become visible during the prophase stage of cell division. This coiling allows the chromosomes to become more condensed and easier to separate during cell division.
The chromosomes in a cell's nucleus are only visible during the part of the cell cycle known as prophase. Prophase is the stage of mitosis in which chromatin condensation occurs.
They first become visible during prophase of mitosis.

The phase of cell division when duplicated chromosomes first appear is called the prophase. In prophase, the chromatin condenses into visible chromosomes, and the nuclear envelope breaks down, allowing the chromosomes to be more clearly visible.
In prophase there's just the condensation of the chromatin material into chromosomes...& nuclear membrane disappears but the chromosomes aren't clearly visible,they are better visible during metaphase..!
