Measurements of the amount of DNA per nucleus were taken on a large number of cells from a growing fungus. The measured DNA leve

ls ranged from 3 to 6 picograms per nucleus.

Answer:

c) G2

Explanation:

A cell cycle is the chorological order of events that allow them to divide and produce new cells. The cell cycle consists of interphase and M (mitosis). Interphases includes gap1(G1), synthesis (S-phase)  and gap 2 (G2) phase.  

During S-phase or synthesis phase, the cell replicates or duplicates its DNA. Coping of DNA requires lots of energy because replication requires synthesis of lots of nucleotides. At the end of S-phase, the cell have two complete sets of genetic material.

During G2 phase cells both the copies of their DNA are correct and intact. Thus, as per question, during G2 phase it can be observed that the nucleus of a cell contain 6 picograms of DNA.

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

In G2 phase (third phase of interphase) of cell division, following the S phase. It is during the S phase of the cell division during which the DNA of the cell replicates. Hence, in the G2 has double the DNA range as compared to the DNA range in prior stages of interphase. Also, in G2 phase cell grows and protein synthesize

Option C is correct

Is selection more effective against recessive alleles in haploid or diploid organisms?
svet-max [94.6K]
The selection of more effective which is against recessive alleles in haploid organisms than diploid organisms. This is because haploid organisms contain a single set of alleles if a deleterious allele is present in haploid organisms which will produce its effect immediately as there will be no dominant allele which can prevent the expression of the recessive allele as it happens in diploids. Recessive allele will not produce its effect in presence of the dominant allele in the case of heterozygote which is Aa.
Where there is haploid the selection will be more effective when removing recessive alleles in the population. It is the homozygous recessive condition which as aa then the selection will act against recessive alleles.

Explain how the process of meiosis relates to the way in which a child
prisoha [69]
Meiosis is a process where a single cell divides twice to produce four cells containing half the original amount of genetic information. That means that they will never be a copy of their parents because of their different genetic material. Characteristics, such as eye color, hair type and color, the shapes of facial features, and height and build, and attribute the combinations of these to the portions of DNA inherited from each parent which makes them different but still carry the DNA of their parents.
