Answer:

45.

Explanation:

Lets say

X= dominant, long wings

x= recessive, short wings

Using Punnett Squares

Xx = heterozygous

Alleles            X           x  

X                   XX         Xx

x                    Xx          xx

Out of 4, only 1 has both recessive short wings, so using the ratio 1/4 × 180 offsprings, 45 of them are expected to have short wings.
