Answer:
Epistasis
Explanation:
Genetics can be defined as the scientific study of hereditary in living organisms such as humans, animals and plants
In Genetics, a gene pair has the ability to influence other gene pairs based on their combined activities which produces some effect on phenotype; this is called epistasis.

Cyclins
are the chemicals that regulate the cell cycle. Cyclins work by regulating the timing
of the cell cycle in eukaryotic cell. Cyclins activates cyclin dependent
kinases (CDKs) (an enzyme that works by adding <span>negatively charged phosphate groups to other
molecules in a process called phosphorylation) by binding to it to form a cyclin-Cdk
complex. This complex then functions by acting as a signal to the cell to move
to the next cell cycle phase. At the end of the event, the cyclin is degraded, Cdk
is deactivated, therefore signaling exit from a specific phase.</span>
Answer:
The correct answer would be C. The tortoises provided evidence that different species have adaptations suited to their particular environments.
Darwin observed that how different environment on different island lead to the development of different species as a result of adaptations and natural selection.
For example, tortoise inhabiting well-watered islands which used to have short and cropped vegetation had developed a dome-shaped shell.
In contrast, the tortoise inhabiting the arid islands had developed saddle-shaped shells. It is because they needed to stretch their necks in order to reach branches of cactus and other vegetation available in the area.
Consequently, they developed long necks and high peak to the front edges of their shells. It made it possible for them to stretch their heads vertically.
