Share. By Regina Bailey. Definition: Mass of genetic material composed of DNA and proteins that condense to form chromosomes during eukaryotic cell division. Chromatin is located in the nucleus of a cell. During prophase of mitosis, chromatin fibers become coiled into chromosomes with each chromosome having two chromatids joined at a centromere.
The chromatin network is like a network of several other condensed masses. Chromatin is that portion of the cell nucleus which contains all of the DNA of the nucleus in animal or plant cells. Even a small amount of special DNA is also found in the mitochondria of the cell cytoplasm outside of the cell nucleus.hromatin, the form of chromosomes when they are in interphase and telophase. when the chromatin condences into chromosomes, the dna is found there, and it is only visible when its in metaphase, chromosomes are made out of the little dna tissues.
