Given what we know, we can confirm that Ostia are important to sponges because they pull water into the sponge through the beating of their flagella.

<h3>What are Sponges?</h3>
  • A sponge is an aquatic multicellular organism.
  • Morphologically, they are very simple organisms, lacking complex structures.
  • One structure that they do possess is the Ostia.
  • The Ostia are a series of pores located throughout the body of the sponge.
  • They serve to draw in water through the beating of multiple flagella.

Therefore, we can confirm that since the Ostia of the sponge are used to pull water into the sponge through the beating of their flagella, the correct answer would be option D.

coat color in mice involves the interaction of multiple genes if a mouse has two recessive alleles for coat colorit is always al
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

Epistasis

Explanation:

In epistasis, the interaction between genes is inimical, such that one gene masks or interferes with the expression of another. “Epistasis” is a word coined of Greek roots that mean “standing upon.” The alleles that are being masked or silenced are said to be hypostatic to the epistatic alleles that are doing the masking. The cause of the biochemical basis of epistasis is a genetic pathway in which the expression of one gene is dependent on the function of a gene that precedes or follows it in the pathway.

The example of epistasis given is the pigmentation of mice. we were told that "if a mouse has two recessive alleles for coat color,  it is always albino no matter what the genotype of other genes involved in coat color"

Let say recessive allele (rr), it is always albino irrespective of other type of other genes, this is true in the stance that epistasis can be reciprocal such that either gene, when present in the dominant (or recessive) form, expresses the same genotype.
