Applying the results 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 Mb in a gamete of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

A) 1.8 Mb
B) 2.5 Mb
C) 3 Mb
D) 3.5 Mb
