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!

How can roots, stems, and leaves all be involved in food storage?
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

Plant produces food material in the process of photosynthesis in the leaves. The food that is produced in the form of glucose (sugar) is transported from the leaves to other parts of the plants such as roots, stem and seeds with the help of water. When the glucose reaches to the storage part it is stored in the form of starch.

For example, in carrot and potato food is stored in roots while in sugar cane the food is stored in the stem.

Only ferns have a gametophyte as part of their life cycle. False.

Only flowering plants produce pollen grains. true

Both a tree and a large fern plant are diploid sporophytes. True

Explanation:

Yes, both ferns and flowering plants produce spores in their life cycles. In fern plant, it produce spores on the underside of the leaves whereas in flowering plant, there are two types of spores such as microspores and megaspores. Both ferns and flowering plants have gametophyte as part of their life cycle. Flowering plants produce pollen grains whereas non-flowering plants produce spores to continue their generation. Both tree and large fern plants having diploid sporophytes which is a necessary part of their life cycle.
