Answer:

Ss × ss

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for hair length in guinea pigs. The alleles for short hair (S) is dominant over that of long hair (s).

According to this question, a guinea pig with short hair (S_) is crossed to one that has long hair (ss) to produce offsprings that have 44 short hair and 46 long hair. This number of offsprings produced indicate a ratio of 1:1, which can only be produced if the short haired guinea pig is heterozygous i.e. Ss.

Therefore, the genotype of the parents are Ss (short hair) and ss (long hair) i.e. Ss × ss. This combination will produce offsprings with the following proportion: Ss (1) : ss (1).

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

Pulmonary fibrosis is a disease that affects the lungs. The lung tissue becomes damaged and scarred which causes it to be thickened and stiff.

The condition pulmonary fibrosis is caused by the replacement of elastic fibers in the lung with inelastic collagen fibers. This decreases the lungs’ ability to stretch outwards.

Pulmonary fibrosis however mainly affects inspiration because the lungs cannot stretch to increase volume while during expiration stretching of the tissues doesn’t happen so it doesn’t affect the process.
