Answer 1

The effects of cystic fibrosis include respiratory and digestive issues. It mainly affects the lungs and digestive system, causing symptoms such as persistent cough, shortness of breath, frequent lung infections, poor growth or weight gain, greasy and bulky stools, and difficulty in absorbing nutrients. Cystic fibrosis can also lead to circulatory and cardiovascular diseases due to chronic inflammation and infection in the lungs. The condition does not directly cause skin disorders or absence of pigment.
