(Hope this helps can I pls have brainlist (crown)☺️)

Explanation:

The interplay of genes that determines phenotype is known as epistasis. Genes may either hide each other, making one "dominant," or they can mix to create a new characteristic. It's the conditional link between two genes that can determine a single phenotype for certain features.

Epistasis is a term used in genetics to describe the interaction of genes at two or more loci, as a consequence of which the gene's impact is influenced by the presence of one or more modifier genes. One gene or allele in the interaction is obscuring the phenotypic expression of the other genes or alleles. Epistatic refers to the gene or allele that masks the impact. The other gene(s) or allele(s) being masked, on the other hand, is/are referred to as hypostatic. Epistasis can be dominant or recessive. The fur colour of Labrador retrievers, which is a polygenic feature, is an example of epistasis. Its fur colour is determined by the interaction of two genes.

Usually invasive species do not prove useful to the new area and prove harmful to the environment as well. There are some species of organisms that have been accidently introduced to new environment and have been accidently proven to be beneficial. Zebra mussels, being the native to Black Sea when arrived to North America flourished there.
