At different times during the life cycle of a cell, the DNA that makes up the cell's chromosomes can be tightly compacted into a structure that is visible under a microscope, or it can be more ...

In contrast, in eukaryotes, all of the cell's chromosomes are stored inside a structure called the nucleus ... differentiated from one another under a microscope by their lengths and by the ...
