The amount of DNA per cell of a particular species is measured in cells found at various stages of meiosis and the following amounts are obtained: 3.7 pg , 7.3 pg , and 14.6 pg. Match the amounts of DNA above with the corresponding stages of the cell cycle. You may use more than one stage for each amount of DNA A. G1 B. Prophase I C. Anaphase I
