(C) Meiotic products (gametes) are haploid $(n)$ and contain $C$ amount of $DNA$. Given that $C = 20 \; pg$.$A$ somatic cell is diploid $(2n)$ and contains $2C$ amount of $DNA$ in the $G_1$ phase.During the $S$ phase,the $DNA$ content doubles,so in the $G_2$ phase,the cell contains $4C$ amount of $DNA$.Therefore,the $DNA$ content in the $G_2$ phase = $4 	imes 20 \; pg = 80 \; pg$.

What will be the content of $DNA$ in a somatic cell at $G_2$ phase if its meiotic products have $20 \; pg$ of $DNA$ (in $; pg$)?
