Scientific Skills Exercise When nutrients are low, cells of the budding yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) exit the mitotic cell cycle and enter meiosis. In this exercise, you will track the DNA content of a population of yeast cells as they progress through meiosis. Researchers grew a culture of yeast cells in a nutrient-rich medium and then transferred them to a nutrientpoor medium to induce meiosis. At different times after induction, the DNA content per cell was measured in a sample of the cells, and the average DNA content per cell was recorded in femtograms (fg; 1 femtogram 1 × 10– 15 gram). Their data are shown in the table to the right. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
Most of the yeast cells in the culture were in G 1 of the cell cycle before being moved to the nutrient-poor medium to induce meiosis. How many femtograms of DNA are there in a yeast cell in G 1? Estimate this value from the data in the table. a) 12 fg b) 24 fg c) 40 fg d) 48 fg © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
