In cats, having a short tail is recessive to having a long tail. if a mother cat is heterozygous for this trait and a father cat is homozygous dominant for having a long tail, what will most likely be true about their offspring? a. all will have long tails. b. all will have short tails. c. about will have short tails. d. about will have long tails.

a. All will have long tails.

Explanation:

Even though the mother is heterozygous for this trait yet her off springs will show dominant trait because her husband is homozygous dominant for this trait. The mother has one recessive allele but it will not be able to express in the presence of dominant allele even after their mating because father will contribute dominant allele each time.

The cross is depicted as under:

                        Mother             Father

Parental            Tt                       TT

F1                       TT     TT      Tt      Tt        

So all their offsprings will pehnotypically be long tailed because dominant allele (T) will suppress expression of recessive allele (t). 50% progenies will be heterozygous for long tail while 50% will be homozygous dominant for this trait.                      

starchy vegetables are high in carbohydrates.

starchy vegetables contain more carbohydrates than non-starchy vegetables.

explanation:

there are two primary categories of carbohydrates, essentially differentiated on the basis of their carbohydrate content (which is in the form of starch - a complex carbohydrate):

those vegetables which contain little amounts of starch are termed as non-starchy vegetables, and some examples include: artichokes, broccoli and bean sprouts.

vegetables high in their starch content are distinguished as starchy vegetables, and some examples include: potatoes, chickpeas and corn.

the cells uses some of the atoms of the glucose molecules to atp molecules. the atoms of the glucose molecules will then be converted into energy which will be eventually stored in atp. the energy produced which are stored in atp are coming from the glucose’s chemical bonds.
