100%

Since the male cat is a homozygous dominant, it will pass on the dominant trait causing the offspring to all have short fur

Answer:

The probability would be 100%

Explanation:

As we know the characteristics of the kitten of the two cats presented in the above question, will be influenced by the dominance and recessivity relations between parents alleles.

As we can see from the question above, the male cat has dominant alleles for short fur (SS), while the female cat has resessive alleles for short fur (ss) and has long fur. The kitten cat generated by these two cats will be heterzigoto (Ss) and as we know the dominant gene is expressed in heterozygosis, so we can say that there is a 100% probability of the kitten have the short fur.

Describe the change in energy according to the Law of Conservation of Energy.
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

Law of conservation  of energy is one of the basic laws of the Physics.

Explanation:

According to the Law of conservation of energy, the total energy of an isolated system doesn't change, Energy may be transformed from one to another but the total energy of an isolated system remains constant.    There have different forms of energy like- kinetic energy, potential energy, chemical energy, thermal energy , electrical energy. the potential energy is converting into kinetic energy in the water falls. When kicking a football, energy is transferred from the body of the kicker to the ball.

As seen in the venn diagram, meiosis is responsible for the production of haploid gametes. somatic or body cells are 2n cells. t
Simora [160]
This change in chromosome number is the result of B. Fertilization. Both of the individual gametes from the male and female combine together to produce a zygote or developing offspring that is diploid in most cases, and possess both sets of genetic content or chromosomal information, one from each parent.

How is the sun's energy exothermic and endothermic in its relationship to earth?
Daniel [21]
The sun's endothermic or exothermic energy has a different, but distinct actions with Earth, which makes them suitable for each other. With the sun's endothermic energy, Photosynthesis occurs in plants, it helps plants absorb heat energy from the sunlight, which lets the plants convert carbon into oxygen and glucose. While the exothermic energy, causes rain. It lets the condensation process of water vapor release energy in the form of heat, which causes rainfall.
