Video transcript

Hi everyone here, we have a question that says if we have a D. N. A. Amount of 30 P. G. At the end of the S. Phase, what will be the D. N. A. Amount of each of the daughter cells at the end of my aosis, too? So at the end of my aosis to the daughter cells have split and the D. N. A. Should be half. So we would expect D. 15 Pg. Thank you for watching. Bye.
