Answer:
a. S represents allele for short hair while s represents allele for long hair.
b. Ss (male) × ss (female)
c. 50% Ss, 50% ss
d. 3 long hair (ss), 3 short hair (Ss)
Explanation:
This question involves a single gene coding for hair length in guinea pigs. The allele for short hair (S) is dominant over the allele for long hair (s).
a. Letter "S" will represent the allele for short hair while letter "s" will represent the allele for long hair.
b. According to this question, a heterozygous male is crossed with a long-haired female. The genotype of the male guinea pig is "Ss" while that of the female is "ss". (see attachment for the punnet square)
c. The possible genotypes of the offsprings in this cross are: Ss and ss, each carrying 50% each as they are produced in a ½ Ss: ½ ss.
d. Since 50% of the offsprings will be both short haired and long haired, If they have six babies, 3 of them will be short-haired while 3 of them will also be long-haired.
Answer:
decrease in population of the prey and an increase in rabbit population
Explanation:
The prey were constantly being killed and eaten by rabbits so there was a decrease in their population whilst the rabbits had an increase in their population due to there being more food for the to live on and there being less competition.
These substances are called reactants.

MRI = Electromagnet
Moon = Not magnetic
Compass = Permanent magnet
Answer:
The organization of life
Explanation:
The organization of living things or life is a system of classifying living things in a hierarchical order or level from the simplest to the most complex based on structure and function. The simplest level is the cell while the most complex is the organism.
All living organisms are made up of cells. Cells are the basic units of life. In complex living organisms, cells are organized into tissues.
Tissues are a group of cells of the same kind. Tissues are organized into organs.
An Organ is a structure composed of one or more types of tissues that work together to perfume a specific function. Human organs include the brain, heart, skin, stomach, kidney, etc. Organs are organized into organ systems.
An Organ system is a group of organs that work together to perform a certain function. Examples of organ systems include the circulatory, skeletal, nervous, digestive and reproductive systems. Organ systems make up an organism.
An organism is an individual living thing that is made up of one or more organ systems. Examples are humans, plants, insects, etc
