DNA is in what form during interphase?

During interphase (1), chromatin is in its least condensed state and appears loosely distributed throughout the nucleus. Chromatin condensation begins during prophase (2) and chromosomes become visible. Chromosomes remain condensed throughout the various stages of mitosis (2-5).

DNA is in form during interphase During interphase, the cell DNA isn't condensed and is loosely distributed.

What happens during interphase?

A stain for heterochromatin (which shows the placement of chromosomes) indicates this large distribution of chromatin. The equal stain additionally indicates the organized, aligned shape of the chromosomes in the course of mitosis.

Nuclear DNA remains in a semi-condensed chromatin structure throughout the interphase. During the S phase, DNA replication results in the creation of identical pairs of DNA molecules, known as sister chromatids, which are tightly linked to the centromeric region.

During the S phase, the centrosome is duplicated.
