    When dividing cells are observed under a light microscope, chromosomes become visible in:

    A) Interphase                     

    B) S-phase

    C) Prophase                      

    D) \[{{G}_{1}}-phase\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] The S and \[{{G}_{2}}-phases\] of interphase are followed by prophase. Prophase is identified by the initiation of condensation of chromosomal material. The chromosomal material during the process of chromatin condensation become untangled. Centriole, now begins to move towards opposite poles of the cell. Therefore, when dividing cells are examined under a light microscope, in prophase only the chromosomes become visible.
