The phenomenon where one gene can modify the effect on the second gene is known as epistasis.

In genetics, epistasis is a phenomenon in which the effect of a gene mutation is determined by the presence or absence of mutations in one or more other genes, which are referred to as modifier genes. To put it another way, the genetic background in which the mutation appears determines its effect. It has long been acknowledged that epistasis, or interactions between genes, is fundamental to comprehending both the structure and function of genetic pathways and the evolutionary dynamics of complex genetic systems.

Vlad [161]

Answer;

-Latitude

Explanation;

-The distance, measured in degrees, north and south of the equator is referred to as latitude.

-Latitude is the measurement of distance north or south of the Equator. It is measured with 180 imaginary lines that form circles around the Earth east-west, parallel to the Equator. These lines are known as parallels. A circle of latitude is an imaginary ring linking all points sharing a parallel.

-The Equator is the line of 0 degrees latitude. Each parallel measures one degree north or south of the Equator, with 90 degrees north of the Equator and 90 degrees south of the Equator.
