By the time the cell is in telophase, the chromosomes have already replicated, condensed, lined up, and migrated to their poles. During telophase the chromosomes are separating as far apart as possible preparing the cell for cytokinesis (division of cytoplasm).

No - the opposite. During mitosis, DNA is very tightly packed, it is during synthesis that the molecules unwind.
