In cats the trait for hair length is controlled by gene S, where the dominant allele(S) results in short hair and recessives have long hair. The W gene is known as the "masking" gene because a cat that has a dominant W allele in its genotype will have an all-white coat due to a lack of melanin in its skin. Cats with a ww genotype can have a coat of any color, depending on the inheritance of other genes that determine coat color. A male with long hair and a white coat is crossed with a female cat with short hair and a white coat. The owner of the cats has heard about the masking gene and believes that the cross will produce a litter of all-white kittens, some with short hair and some with long hair.

(a) is the owner's prediction accurate? give evidence to support your response.
(b) Based on the given information, determine all of the possible genotypes of the kittens in the litter.
