Question

If egg of an organism has 10 pg of DNA in its nucleus. How much DNA would a diploid cell of same organism have in $G_2$ phase of meiosis?

• A. 10 pg
• B. 5 pg
• C. 20 pg
• D. 40 pg

Answer 1

The correct option is D 40 pg

Egg (Haploid) = 10 pg of DNA
Diploid cell = 20 pg of DNA
In $G_2$ phase, the DNA will be 40 pg as before $G_2$, the DNA get doubles in S phase.
