Solution

The correct option is A Euchromatin
  • During the interphase stage of cell division, the chromatin fibres in the nucleus is least condensed and appear loosely distributed throughout the nucleus.
  • Euchromatin is the lightly stained region of chromatin and contains relatively more DNA.
  • This region is under active transcription during the interphase.
  • So, the correct answer is 'Euchromatin'.
