    Answer: Incomplete dominance

    Explanation:

    Manx cat shows incomplete dominance which means the kitten can be born with full length tails, short length tails and without tails.

    The genotype of the parent will be heterozygous (Tt) and the kittens will be TT (long tail) Tt (short tail) tt (no tail).

    These tails can be see in the same single litter. Due to this variability these cats are classified based on their tail length.

    The phenotype of the kitten can be short length, long tailed and they can be without tail.
