Due to resource partitioning, zebra relative density changes over time and grass height.
<h3>What is resource partitioning?</h3>
- Resource partitioning is the process by which due to natural selection, competing species use different resources and niches.
- In the case of African savanna, right after peak rain all the three grazers (zebra, wildebeest, and Thomson’s gazelle) have high density.
- After rain in one month relative density of zebras is maximum but it becomes nearly zero after three months due to high density of wildebeest and then increases a little after six months.
- The density of zebras is greatest when the grass is tallest and most abundant because of resource partitioning as zebras get the most out of eating tall grass.
- Zebras can eat and digest faster taller grasses with many stems.
- This gives them an advantage over other grazers in terms of nutrition when the grass is tall.

- Movement or locomotion
- Respiration
- Nutrition
- Irritability or sensitivity
- Growth
- Excretion
- Reproduction
- Death
<h3>WHAT ARE LIVING THINGS:</h3>
- Living things are organisms that possess life in them and can perform certain functions unique to them.
- These functions are the characteristics of living things. The following are the characteristics of living things:
- Respiration
- Nutrition
- Irritability or sensitivity
- Growth
- Excretion
- Reproduction
- Death

Answer:
1) In the first step, we need to predict the possible alleles for the cross. The dominant allele will be written with a capital letter. The recessive allele will be written with a small letter. Hence, the allele for brown hair colour will be B and the allele for red hair colour will be b.
2) In the second step, we need to determine the genotype of the parents. The genotype of the homozygous dominant parent will be BB. The genotype of the heterozygous brown hair colour will be Bb.
3) The punnet square for cross between these parents can be shown as follows:
B b
B BB Bb
B BB Bb
4) In the fourth step, lets determine the phenotype of the children. The phenotype of all the offsprings born will be brown hair colour.
5) The genotype from the punnet square shows that there is a 50% chance that the offsprings will be heterozygous dominant (Bb) for brown hair colour and their will be a 50% chance that the child born will be homozygous dominant (BB).
