Answer:
DNA replication
Explanation:
DNA replication is the process whereby the genetic material (DNA) duplicates itself into two identical copies. This process must occur prior to any cellular division (meiosis or mitosis) in order to ascertain that each daughter cell gets an even and correct amount of DNA.
The process of DNA replication begins with the unwinding of the double stranded DNA molecule into two single strands of DNA. One strand called leading strand runs from 3'-5' while the other strand runs from 5'-3'. However, DNA replication proceeds in the 5'-3' direction.

Answer:
e. Epistatic interaction of the two genes
Explanation:
The 9:7 ratio is typical of the Duplicate Recessive Epistasis.
The expected phenotypic ratiio of the offsrping of a dihybrid cross is:
9 A_B_
3 A_bb
3 aaB_
1 aabb
In the Duplicate Recessive Epistasis, the A_bb, aaB_ and aabb individuals all have the same phenotype, making for the ratio 9:7. What those three genotypes have in common is that in all of them at least one of the two genes is homozygous recessive (either <em>aa</em> or <em>bb</em>).
This usually happens one the products of genes A and B are enzymes of the same metabolic pathway.
Whenever both A and B are present, the pathway can produce the final product and a certain phenotype. However, if any of the dominant alleles is missing, the enzyme is not produced and therefore the final product of pathway is not produced, giving the other phenotype.
The correct answer is A. This is because undeveloped meaning they don't have access to any of the other offered answers
