A gene on a chromosome lies close to another gene controlling a different trait. This indicates that the genes are _. The first
umka2103 [35]

My guess:

I do not know the options to the blanks, but I'd say that the answer to the first one is "strongly linked". Think of a chromosome as a phylogenic chart → 2 species that are beside each other are strongly linked, if compared to 2 species 3 spots apart form each other. So, 2 genes that are close to each other are strongly linked.

I do not know the options to the blanks, but I'd say the answer to the second one is epistasis → which is the interaction between two different genes (different means they're not linked alleles).

Hope it helped,

How does the human eye interpret optical illusions.
