Detailed Solution

The interphase nucleus has a loose and indistinct network of nucleoprotein fibres called chromatin.
Every chromosome essentially has a primary constriction or the centromere on the sides of which disc shaped structures called kinetochores are present. 
Few chromosomes have non-staining secondary constrictions at a constant location. This gives the appearance of a small fragment called the satellite.
