If you stretch out the DNA molecule form its one end to another, it will be close to 2m long. Therefore before a cell can divide into two during mitosis it is essential that the DNA is tightly and orderly compacted in the nucleus of the parent cell. Proper organization of the DNA is important for transmitting the genetic information of an organism from one cell to another.
Protein involved in DNA condensation. In most eukaryotes, the chromosomal packing involves the wrapping of DNA around a core of histones to form nucleosomes. Adjacent nucleosomes are packaged together via Histone 1 and nucleosomes are organized into a 30 nm chromatin fiber. DNA condensation takes place as cells enter mitosis or when germ cells enter meiosis.
during mitosis(prophase)
the answer is chromosomes they form into short conden
Yes, chromosomes are fully duplicated and condensed during the G2 phase of interphase in preparation for cell division. This condensed form allows for easier segregation of genetic material during mitosis or meiosis.
The best stage of mitosis to study chromosome morphology is metaphase, as this is when the chromosomes are fully condensed and aligned along the metaphase plate in preparation for separation.
During mitosis, the fibers of each individual chromosome are drawn together forming the tightly packed nucleosomes. The tight packing of nucleosomes may help separate chromosomes during mitosis.

generally yes. because when a cell has DNA that are nucleosomes they generally go through mitosis or meiosis. this makes them more complex than say bacteria which have plasmids as their DNA structure instead of nucleosomes and go through binary fission instead of mitosis or meiosis
It is advantageous to give chemotherapy during interphase mitosis. By administering chemo, it will encourage the cells to fail and eventually die off.
Yes, as they are at their most condensed going through mitosis. Seen with a microscope, that is!
during mitosis(prophase)
during metaphase and anaphase
the answer is chromosomes they form into short conden
Karyotypes are made during metaphase of mitosis when the condensed chromosomes are lined up on the metaphase plate. At this stage, the chromosomes are most condensed and easily identifiable for analysis.
Mitosis
During prophase of mitosis, chromosomes condense and become shorter. As mitosis progresses, the condensed chromosomes move to the center of the cell and eventually separate during anaphase.
Yes, chromosomes are fully duplicated and condensed during the G2 phase of interphase in preparation for cell division. This condensed form allows for easier segregation of genetic material during mitosis or meiosis.
