If we talk about guinea pigs, the trait of hair length is controlled by a gene with two alleles.
Allele for short hair (S) is dominant on the allele for the long hair (s).
The texture of hair texture is controlled by a gene with two alleles. It can be rough or smooth, and the allele for rough hair (R) is dominant on allele for smooth hair (r).
Now coming towards the question:
- A female guinea pig is heterozygous for hair texture and homozygous recessive for hair length.
Phenotype of the female will be Rough and long hair.
- A male guinea pig is homozygous dominant for hair texture and hair length.
Phenotype of the male will be Rough and short hair.
Hope it help!
It cannot survive because an earth worm will not become 2 new worm. The head of the worm may survive and regenerate a tail. But if original tail of the worm may not survive because it will not be able to grow a new head or the rest of its vital organs and it will die. I hope this helps. :)
