A somatic cell that has just completed the S phase of its cell cycle, as compared to gamete of the same species, has
twice the number of chromosomes and four times the amount of DNA
same number of chromosomes but twice the amount of DNA
twice the number of chromosomes and four times the amount of DNA
twice the number of chromosomes and four times the amount of DNA
C.
twice the number of chromosomes and four times the amount of DNA
In general a gamete contains 'n' number of chromosomes (haploid) and 'x' amount of DNA. In comparison to the gamete, an (diploid) somatic cell usually have 2n number of chromosomes and 2x amount of DNA. But, after the cell enters and complete the 'S'-phase of its cell cycle, the DNA content of the cell becomes double (due to its duplication). However, the number of chromosomes remains the same. Hence, the somatic cell that has undergone and completed its 'S' phase of cell cycle will have twice the number of chromosomes and four times the DNA content.
Chromosomes | DNA content | |
Gamete | n | x |
Somatic cell (diploid) | 2n | 2x |
Somatic cell (after S-phase) | 2n | 4x |

Sliding filament theory can be best explained as
When myofilaments slide pass each other actin filaments shorten while mysoin filament do not shorten
Actin and Myosin filaments shorten and slide pass each other
Actin and Myosin filaments do not shorten but rather slide pass each other
Actin and Myosin filaments do not shorten but rather slide pass each other
