Answer:

e. Epistatic interaction of the two genes

Explanation:

The 9:7 ratio is typical of the Duplicate Recessive Epistasis.

The expected phenotypic ratiio of the offsrping of a dihybrid cross is:

9 A_B_

3 A_bb

3 aaB_

1 aabb

In the Duplicate Recessive Epistasis, the A_bb, aaB_ and aabb individuals all have the same phenotype, making for the ratio 9:7. What those three genotypes have in common is that in all of them at least one of the two genes  is homozygous recessive (either <em>aa</em> or <em>bb</em>).

This usually happens one the products of genes A and B are enzymes of the same metabolic pathway.

Whenever both A and B are present, the pathway can produce the final product and a certain phenotype. However, if any of the dominant alleles is missing, the enzyme is not produced and therefore the final product of pathway is not produced, giving the other phenotype.

The most important difference between primary cells and secondary cells is Select only the best answer: primary cells exhibit a
torisob [31]

Hi there! This question is a bit confusing.

Primary cells more of have one "star" quality; they are not rechargable. Think of them like a battery in a TV remote! You replace them, they can't recharge.

Secandary cells, though, can be electrically recharged! Like your phone battery, plug it in and a few hours later, full battery.

Your answer would be "Secondary cells are rechargable"

Have a great rest of your day!

How is a fish different from a jellyfish?
Korvikt [17]

Jellyfish are forever but fish ain't.

Plus, jellyfish have those tentacle like things attached to thier body and you might confuse em for octopus for that very reason..

but you should really evade confusing em as an octopus cuz octopus might take it as an insult and the next thing you know will be a Kraken taking your house down.. which is pretty tragic :'(
