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.

Denitrifying bacteria convert nitrate into _____, thus returning nitrogen to _____.
ziro4ka [17]

Denitrifying bacteria convert nitrate into <u>nitrogen gas</u>, thus returning nitrogen to the <u>atmosphere</u>.

Denitrifying bacteria- Numerous phyla are included in the broad class of bacteria known as denitrifying bacteria. This group of bacteria, which is a part of the nitrogen cycle, may carry out denitrification together with denitrifying fungi and archaea.

Phylum (Phyla)- In biology, a phylum is a rank or level of taxonomic categorization that comes after a kingdom but before a class. Although the nomenclature for algae, fungus, and plants is recognized by the International Code of Nomenclature as being equivalent, division rather than phylum has traditionally been used in botany.
