Question # 1

Compare between epistasis and poleiotropy.

  • Ans 1: Epistasis: When an effect caused by a gene pair on one locus interferes with or hides the effect caused by another gene or gene pair at another locus,it is called epistasis.
  • Ans 2: Poleiotropy: When a single gene affects two of more traits,the phenomenon is called pleiotropy.

Question # 1

Differentiate between genotype and phenotype.

  • Ans 1: Genotype: Genotype is the genetic complement i.e the genes is an individual for a particular trait e.g"Rr" &"Rr" are alleles for red color."rr" are alleles for white colour.
  • Ans 2: Phenotype:"Phenotype" is the from of appearance of a trait in an organism".e.g Red and white flower colours are example of phenotype.
