It would be D, fertilization.
Answer:
The exons may be defined as the coding region of the RNA that codes for the particular amino acid. The introns are the non coding region of RNA and must be removed in the final RNA product.
Exon shuffling result in the formation of new gene. The alteration of the exon and intron structure leads to the new gene function in evolution. The genes that are favored and conserved in the evolution perform new gene function. The genes that are selected against are deleted during the evolution.
Answer:
12:3:1
Explanation:
<em>The typical F2 ratio in cases of dominant epistasis is 12:3:1.</em>
<u>The epistasis is a form of gene interaction in which an allele in one locus interacts with and modifies the effects of alleles in another locus</u>. There are different types of epistasis depending on the type of alleles that are interacting. These include:
- Dominant/simple epistasis: Here, a dominant allele on one locus suppresses the expression of both alleles on another locus irrespective of whether they are dominant or recessive. Instead of the Mendelian dihybrid F2 ratio of 9:3:3:1, what is obtained is 12:3:1. Examples of this type of gene interaction are found in seed coat color in barley, skin color in mice, etc.
- Other types of epistasis include <em>recessive epistasis (9:3:4), dominant inhibitory epistasis (13:3), duplicate recessive epistasis (9:7), duplicate dominant epistasis (15:1), and polymeric gene interaction (9:6:1).</em>
