Answer: d)All of the above
Explanation: Competitive effect is defined as the interaction created between species or organism , which usually results in negative situation. There are certain condition for the competition such as supply of any resource in limited quantity, etc.So competition is also invoked by the density of the species present and in order to exist in an ecosystem and thus there is the high chances of the overlapping of species as well.
Therefore,option(d) is the correct option.

Answer:
Epistasis
Explanation:
In epistasis, the interaction between genes is inimical, such that one gene masks or interferes with the expression of another. “Epistasis” is a word coined of Greek roots that mean “standing upon.” The alleles that are being masked or silenced are said to be hypostatic to the epistatic alleles that are doing the masking. The cause of the biochemical basis of epistasis is a genetic pathway in which the expression of one gene is dependent on the function of a gene that precedes or follows it in the pathway.
The example of epistasis given is the pigmentation of mice. we were told that "if a mouse has two recessive alleles for coat color, it is always albino no matter what the genotype of other genes involved in coat color"
Let say recessive allele (rr), it is always albino irrespective of other type of other genes, this is true in the stance that epistasis can be reciprocal such that either gene, when present in the dominant (or recessive) form, expresses the same genotype.
So the dark butterfly camouflages better on the tree. Where as the white one can clearly be seen and identified. A predator will also easily spot it and kill it. The dark butterfly has evolved over time to the color that it is, to best help it survive. This is also shown in the tread on the graph.
Hope this helps!!
