Given the fact that 1 fg of DNA 9.78 105 base pairs (on average), you can convert the amount of DNA per cell to the length of DNA in numbers of base pairs. Millions of base pairs (Mb) is the standard unit for expressing genome size. Calculate the approximate number of base pairs of DNA in the haploid yeast genome.

Respuesta :

Answer:

12 Mb (12 x 10⁶ base pairs)

Explanation:

Given;

1 fg of DNA=9.78×10⁵  

The yeast cell is undergoing cell division over a period of 12 hrs and the various phases of cell cycle i.e., G1, S, G2, Meiosis 1 and Meiosis 2.  

The approximate number of base pairs of DNA in the haploid genome of yeast =12 Mb (12 x 10⁶ base pairs).
