Answer:
Explanation:
As the cell enters meiosis 1, it's DNA replicates in S phase and then reduces to half when the cell splits into two. Hence, the amount of DNA remains 10 pg.
During meiosis 2, there is no DNA replication but only division between cells, leading to 5 pg of DNA in all four daughter cells.
So, the correct option is '10 pg and 5 pg respectively
