Final answer:

During cell division, the chromatin condenses to form visible chromosomes, which are replicated and separated into two daughter cells.

Step-by-step explanation:

When a cell divides, its chromatin structure is not completely reset.

During cell division, the chromatin condenses to form visible chromosomes, which consist of DNA tightly wrapped around proteins.

These chromosomes are then replicated and separated into two daughter cells, each containing a complete set of chromosomes.
