Question

Measurements of the amount of DNA per nucleus were taken on a large number of cells from a growing fungus. The measured DNA levels ranged from 3 to 6 picograms per nucleus. In which stage of the cell cycle would the nucleus contain 6 picograms of DNA

Answer 1

The correct answer is G2

Step-by-step explanation:

The G2 phase is a short phase in the cell cycle between Synthesis (S) and Mitosis I (MI) stages, in which the DNA content is double than the DNA amount observed in the original cell. The G2 phase is used to repair DNA damages that occurred during DNA synthesis
