Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Chromosomes condense into compact structures during prophase, metaphase, and anaphase of mitosis or meiosis. During telophase, the nuclear envelope reforms around the separated chromatids at each pole of the cell, and the chromatin begins to decondense, returning to the diffuse state of interphase.
