mariarad [96]

Answer:

16 pg at the end of S

16 pg at the end of G2

A cell has 8 pg of DNA per nucleus in G1.

During S phase the DNA replicates, so every nucleus will contain double the normal amount of DNA that was present in G1. Therefore, at the end of S each nucleus would have 16 pg of DNA.

During G2 the cell continues growing and preparing for mitosis, but DNA content does not change: there are still 16 pg per nucleus.
