epistatic gene
Explanation:
Some genes mask the expression of other genes just as a fully dominant allele masks the expression of its recessive counterpart. A gene that masks the phenotypic effect of another gene is called an epistatic gene; the gene it subordinates is the hypostatic gene.
Answer:
Mushrooms and plants all need energy to grow. But the sources of their energy differs.
Explanation:
Sun is the ultimate source of energy for any living organisms to grow and make their food. While plants takes energy from the sun directly and make their food, while the mushrooms which is not a plant does not take energy from the sun directly.
Mushrooms utilizes the energies which is collected by the different organism which collects their energy from the sun such as organisms like the bacteria and plants. Mushrooms grow well in darkness as darkness helps to retain moisture. Mushrooms does not have chlorophyll to make food.
Plants have chlorophyll. And they direct absorb energy from the sun light to make their own food.
Cellular respiration is the process by which living organisms convert their chemical energy from nutrients into ATP. Cellular respiration is one of the major ways by which living organisms release chemical energy to drive chemical activities. Cellular respiration cause loss in dry weight. This is because, during cellular respiration there is release of energy from the living organism, carbon dioxide and oxygen are also exchanged. The energy that has to be spent during respiration is responsible for the loss in mass in living organisms.
