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.

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

When clotting factors in the plasma are activated to form a blood clot, the fluid portion of plasma that remains is known as <u>serum.</u>

Explanation:

The liquid part of blood is known as the plasma. it makes about 90 per cent of the blood and comprises of antibodies and the clotting factors.

If the clotting factors or the fibrinogens are removed from the plasma, then the fluid that remains is termed as serum. The blood serum contains useful proteins like the albumin and antibodies. The serum is the part of the blood that is mostly used for the diagnostic tests.
