In the case of a recessive genetic disorder, an individual must inherit two copies of the mutated allele in order for the disease to be present.
A base substitution of G:C to A:T after two rounds of replication.
My guess:
I do not know the options to the blanks, but I'd say that the answer to the first one is "strongly linked". Think of a chromosome as a phylogenic chart → 2 species that are beside each other are strongly linked, if compared to 2 species 3 spots apart form each other. So, 2 genes that are close to each other are strongly linked.
I do not know the options to the blanks, but I'd say the answer to the second one is epistasis → which is the interaction between two different genes (different means they're not linked alleles).
Hope it helped,

Answer/ explanation :
Reflex response is an involuntary, automatic and rapid response to a stimulus.
It's is controlled by the brain stem.
Reflex actions cannot be controlled. They are coordinated by nerves which moves to and fro in the spinal cord without a direct involvement of the brain.
Examples of a reflex response
Sneezing, coughing, yawning, toughing a hot object, blinking of the eyes.
There are two types of reflex response
Autonomic reflex arc
The somatic reflex arc
The reflex responses happens so quickly because they do not have to be processed by the brain before taking place.
