OLga [1]

Loop Diuretics

These are diuretics that exerts effect on the loop of Henle. They are primarily used in heart failure, hypertension and edema. In contrast with Thiazides, loop diuretics are more effective in patients with abnormal kidney function. Loop diuretics inhibit the magnesium and calcium reabsorption in the thick ascending limb of Henle. Loop diuretics is highly protein bound. It has volume of distribution that is limited. This causes the diuretics to be secreted in the convuluted tubules to exert its function.

In guinea pigs the allele for black fur (B) is dominant over the allele for brown fur (b), and the allele for short fur (F) is d

galben [10]

Answer:

100%

Explanation:

This question involves two genes in guinea pigs; one coding for fur color and the other for fur length. The alleles of black fur (B) and short fur (F) is dominant over the alleles for brown fur (b) and long fur (f).

In a cross between two offsprings with genotypes: BBFF x bbff, the following gametes will be produced by each parent:

BBFF - BF, BF, BF, and BF

bbff - bf, bf, bf, bf

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), one will notice that all of the offsprings will have the genotype: BbFf i.e all or 100% of the offsprings are heterozygous for both of the genes or traits.
