Verified step by step guidance

Understand the structure and function of eukaryotic chromosomes: Eukaryotic chromosomes are linear DNA molecules associated with proteins, primarily histones, which help in packaging the DNA into a compact form.

Recognize the presence of chromosomes in eukaryotic cells: Chromosomes are present in all eukaryotic cells, regardless of the cell's activity, including during protein synthesis and cell division.

Identify the visibility of chromosomes during the cell cycle: Chromosomes become highly condensed and visible under a microscope during cell division, specifically during mitosis and meiosis.

Evaluate the statement about chromosomes throughout the cell cycle: Chromosomes are always present in the cell, but they are not always in their condensed, visible form. They are less condensed during interphase when the cell is not dividing.

Determine the false statement: The statement 'Chromosomes appear in an obvious form only as a cell is about to divide' is true, making it the correct answer to the question about which statement is false regarding eukaryotic chromosomes.
