question 10
1 pts
in epistasis, the interaction between genes is antagonistic. this means that one gene — the
expression of another gene.
enhances
masks
crosses over
mutates

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Epistasis is a genetic phenomenon. In epistasis, one gene masks or suppresses the expression of another gene. For example, in some flower color inheritance, one gene can prevent the expression of genes related to pigment production. Enhancing would be the opposite of antagonistic interaction. Crossing over is a process in meiosis related to genetic recombination, not the interaction described here. Mutating refers to a change in the gene itself, not its interaction with another gene.

Answer:

B. masks
