Genetic material is called (1) and then referred to as (2) and is clearly visible during (3)
A
Chromatid (2) Chromosomes (3) Cell Division
B
Chromosomes (2) Chromatid (3) Mitosis
C
Chromatid (2) Chromosomes (3) Mitosis
D
Chromosomes (2) Chromosomes (3) Mitosis
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The molecule inside cells that contains the genetic information responsible for the development and function of an organism. DNA molecules allow this information to be passed from one generation to the next.

Detailed explanation-2: -DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is the cell’s genetic material, contained in chromosomes within the cell nucleus and mitochondria.

Detailed explanation-3: -Chromosomes become visible, or in other words they condense. During interphase the DNA strands are uncoiled (uncondensed) in the nucleus. This uncondensed genetic material is called chromatin; thus an uncondensed chromosome can be called chromatin.

Detailed explanation-4: -In meiosis II, the sister chromatids separate, making haploid cells with non-duplicated chromosomes.
