An "Alpha pair" is the dominant breeding pair in a pack of animals. This is usually a normality in wolf packs. Only the alpha female and alpha male are allowed to have offspring.

They don't have one. Their symbols are the crescent and the pink carnation.
What is the difference between a alpha and omega?
Well, the Alpha is the leader of the group, for example lets talk wolves. The Alpha would be the leader of the pack, the omega would be the very last rank in the pack.
What is an alpha predator?
An alpha predator is a predator that has virtually no predators of their own; they are at the top of the food chain. An example would be an eagle.
What does a Beta do in a wolfpack?
The beta wolf is the top challenger for the alpha position, hence his roll within a pack is to keep the alpha wolf on top of his game, or to become the alpha, himself. Vying challenges are seldom lethal or even injurious, so a beta victory usually means the alpha and beta simply swap places in the hierarchy. Since the alpha wolf retains the right to breed, the beta is quite motivated.
Does a pack have more than two alphas?
There is an Alpha male and an Alpha female (the main pair of the pack) other then that no there is on the one Alpha pair
Who is the real alpha pair of razor Bloods?

what is a female alpha called?
Usually just Alpha female or alphess. Often the male and female together are referred to as the Alpha pair.
What is the second star in the alpha centauri star system?
Alpha Centauri, although it appears to the naked eye as a single star, is a binary pair. Together they are designated Alpha Centauri AB, the more massive and luminous in the pair designated Alpha Centauri A, the less massive and luminous Alpha Centauri B. Together, this pair is the third brightest "star" in the night sky. There is a third star probably interacting gravitationally with the pair, Proxima Centauri, also designated Alpha Centauri C, a red dwarf which is not visible to the naked eye but is the next closest star to our Sun. Alpha Centauri B has about 90% of the mass of our Sun and is about 45% as bright. Note that Alpha Centauri B is not the "second" star (second brightest) in the constellation Centaurus: that is Beta Centauri, which is itself a trinary star system.
What is the alpha in a pack?
The alpha's are leaders in the pack and the only pair that mate unless they give permission to over members in the pack. Always remember that there are always two alpha's, the male and the female.
What is the process in which an atomic nucleus expels a helium nucleus?
We give the name alpha decay to this nuclear decay event. The alpha particle, which is a pair of protons and a pair of neutrons bound together, is, in fact a helium-4 nucleus.
Are gray wolves independent or social?
They are social, pack animals, usually dominated by an Alpha pair.
How does the omega wolf breed?
The omega doesn't breed. Only the alpha pair breeds. If other pups are born in the pack that are not the alpha's, they can either be accepted, or are killed/abandoned to give the alpha's pups a better chance to survive.
Is an alpha particle radioactive?
An alpha particle itself is not radioactive, but it is the result of a type of radioactive decay called (obviously) alpha decay. The alpha particle is actually a helium-4 nucleus, and it will eventually pick up a pair of electrons and become an atom of that inert or noble gas.
Is an alpha particle lighter than an electron?
No, an alpha particle is not identical to an electron. An alpha particle is a helium-4 nucleus, and it's composed of a pair of protons and a pair of neutrons fused together. It several thousand times the mass of an electron, and has twice its charge with an opposite sign (+2). An electron is that little negatively charged (-1) elementary particle that we find whizzing around atoms. You'll find a pair of related questions linked below.
How is hemoglobin constructed?
Normal adult hemoglobin has a pair each of alpha-globin and beta-globin molecules
What radiation results in the greatest change in atomic number?
Setting aside spontaneous fission, which is the natural "splitting" of an atom into fissin fragments, it is alpha decay that results in the greatest change in atomic number. The alpha particle carries off a helium-4 nucleus, which is a pair of protons and a pair of neutrons. Atomic number of an element involved in an alpha decay goes down by two.
