Answer:

(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.

What would happen when an artificial K+ channel is inserted into an axon membrane at resting potential?Answer questions 1-4 by s
kap26 [50]

Answer:

<h2>K+ movement will be closed or blocked because the outside is more positive charged and K+ is a positive particle.</h2>

Explanation:

Resting potential of a neuron cell is a type of condition in which the neuron lives in rest that means there is no transmission of the impulse takes place. Such type of the condition occurs due to more negative charges inside the cell and more positive charges outside the cell. During this condition potassium ions are in higher condition inside the neuron and the concentration of sodium ions are high at outside of the neuron.

Why is it necessary for the DNA to replicate prior to cell division?
kherson [118]
The answer is b. because you wouldn't want a daughter cell that didn't have <em>all </em>necessary to be a complete cell, and this could be messed up if the DNA didn't replicate prior to cell division

Compare the processes of mitosis and meiosis by explaining the number of cells formed in each process, Number of chromosomes in
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

1) In mitosis, a single cell is divided into two daughter cells while in meiosis a single cell is divided into four daughter cells.

2) Mitosis occurs in body cells in which sperm and egg cells combine and make a diploid zygote while meiosis are present in sex cells in which haploid cells are produced.

3) In mitosis, the number of chromosome is double i. e. Diploid while in meiosis the number of chromosome is half i. e. haploid.
