Assume long or short hair in cats is determined by one gene pair, and long hair (H) is
dominant to short hair (h).
Two cats, with gene pairs indicated in the Punnett square, produce offspring.
Which type of hair can the offspring have?
They can have only short hair.
They can have only long hair.
They can have only medium-length hair.
They can have either long or short hair.

Final answer:

The offspring can have either long or short hair based on the provided Punnett square genotypes.


Explanation:

The offspring can have either long or short hair. When two cats with genotypes represented by the Punnett square (HH x hh) mate, their offspring can inherit the dominant long hair allele (H) from one parent and the recessive short hair allele (h) from the other. This results in a genotype combination that allows for both long and short hair possibilities.
