Question

A scientist collects cells at various points in the cell cycle and isolates DNA from them. Using density-gradient centrifugation, she separates the nuclear DNA and mtDNA. She then measures the amounts of mtDNA and nuclear DNA present at different points in the cell cycle. On the following graph, draw a line to represent the relative amounts of nuclear DNA that you expect her to find per cell throughout the cell cycle. Then, draw a dotted line on the same graph to indicate the relative amounts of mtDNA that you would expect to see at different points throughout the cell cycle.
