Answer: long-spined cacti will survive longer and reproduce more often than short-spined cacti

Explanation:

The natural selection is the process of differential survival and reproduction which is facilitated by beneficial traits that some living beings posses over the others. These traits help these living beings to survive and reproduce. Thus the beneficial traits are passed on from generation to generation.

The long spines prevent the herbivorous eating better than the short spines. Thus the long spine cactus will survive and reproduce more than the short spined cactus.

What are the punnet squares really used for and do they work 
podryga [215]
Punnett squares are used to find out the possible genotypes of the next generation after a cross and thus find the phenotype too according to the predicted genotypes.

For example, parents with genotypes of Rr and rr cross together, we can use the punnett square to list out the possible genotypes of their children which are Rr and rr.

You can never predict the exact genotypes of the next child but you can find out the possibility if they carry a certain trait. All the genotypes of the child are in random but you at least know what phenotypes they'll have.
