C. Metaphase of mitosis
The chromosomes are in their best spot to be seen individually
My science teacher made us all write songs about mitosis so I’m pretty familiar with it by now

Answer: C. Metaphase of mitosis.

Step-by-step explanation :

A karyotype of a person reveals the number and the structure of the chromosomes present in his cell.

For making a karyotype a somatic cell is chosen which is arrested in the metaphase stage of mitosis.

The metaphase stage of mitosis is chosen because at this stage:

A) A complete set of chromosomes is present (cell is diploid).

B) The chromosomes are most condensed at this stage.

Due to these reasons, the metaphase stage is selected to prepare a karyotype.
