Answer:
The males can only either be black or orange
Explanation:
There can be no male calico because for an offspring to be a calico the two codominant alleles must each be carried on the two X chromosomes and in the males, there is the presence of just one X chromosomes, thus they can either be black or be orange. For the females, the can only be black if they carry the black allele on both X chromosomes, the same goes for the orange.

The process for connecting two monomers together is called dehydration synthesis. Dehydration means
“removal of water” and synthesis means “to join together”. So in this
process, two monomers are covalently bonded by the removal of a
water molecule. Each organic monomer has a hydroxyl group on
one side and a hydrogen on the other. When two monomers line
up side by side, they will have these two functional groups facing one
another. The H and the OH will break off of their respective
monomers and bond forming a water molecule. This is the dehydration
part of the process. Each monomer now has a carbon atom that needs
to covalently bond with something, so they bind to each other forming
a polymer. That is the synthesis part of the process.

Answer:
The STR fragments will have different size for different animals.
Explanation:
- STR means Short Tandem Repeats.
- STR forms the genome's microsatellite region.
- STR or microsatellite is that region of the genome where, about two to seven base pairs of the DNA (for example, ATGATGATGATG), are repeated for multiple time. Such sequences can have few hundred repeats.
- While replicating these micro-satellite regions, the accuracy of the DNA polymerase in proof-reading the sequence of the newly synthesised strand, decreases, due to the multiple repeats.
- As a result of this, the DNA polymerase either adds more or adds less of such repeated sequences as compared to the parental DNA sequence. This results in generation of polymorphism (different microsatellite size in different individuals) in the repeat regions.
- Due to difference in size of the STR in different individuals, the size of the fragment amplified through PCR will vary for different elephants.
