Researchers test a group of cells for DNA content immediately following mitosis and find the average to be 12 picograms of DNA per nucleus. Based on this information, how many pictograms of DNA would they expect to find at the end of the S phase and at the end of the G2 phase

The correct answer is - 24, 24

Explanation:

In any type of cell division, there is an interphase stage before the actual process of division which is a preparatory process or stage that includes different substages like G1, S, and G2. S phase is a synthesis of the cell cycle responsible for duplication or replication of the DNA.

So, at the end of the S phase, the DNA amount becomes double its initial amount and remains the same in the G2 phase. So, if the initial amount is 12 picogram then it will be double in the S phase and remain 12 in G2 as well.

all answers true and false
