depends on the breed some have very long tails some have none This depends on the cat. Manx cats may have no tail at all, or may have an inch (2.5 cm) or less tail. Domestic shorthair cats' tails seem to range from about eight inches (20cm) to about 12 inches (30cm).

Example of how natural selection occurs?

Lets say you have two bunnies. One has a long tail, the other has short tail. The one with the long tail died because a predator was able to catch onto the long tail and eat it. Therefore, the long tailed bunny can't pass on the characteristic of a long tail and that trait is no longer seen in bunnies. However, the bunny with the short tail isn't caught by predators as easily, and as a result, passes on the trait of a short tail to its offspring. After a long amount of time, no bunnies will have long tails because all the bunnies with long tails were killed out, and as a result, can't pass on the characteristic of a long tail. Bunnies then evolve to always have short tails.


What are physical traits of a cat?

The term "Tabby" is not a breed or type of cat; it is coat pattern found on many cats, and can be found in several breeds. The only thing tabby cats have in common is their coat pattern, which is defined by dark markings (stripes, swirls, spots) on a paler background. The stripe colour is solid (goes right to the hair root), but the background colour is banded with colour on each individual hair.

The offspring of two short-tailed cats have 25 percent chance of having no tail a 25 percent chance of having a long tail and a 50 percent chance of having a short tail Based on this information wh?

The reason is because short tail cats have both genes of a no tail cat and a genes of a long tail cat. Lets say that a long tail gene is called gene A, and a no tail gene is called gene B. if both cats have short tails that means both cats have both genes A and B equally. so there is a 50-50 chance that each cat gives either gene to the baby This means the possible combinations are that one cat gives the baby an A and the other a B, remember that this possibility comes up twice since it doesn't matter which cat gives the A or the B. The other possibilities are that both cats give the kitten an A, or both cats give the kitten a B. That leaves AB(short tail), BA(short tail), AA(long tail), BB(no tail) so 25% for no tail, 25% for long tail, and 50% for short tail.
