What is Epistasis?
A) When one gene effect another
B) When one gene effect multiple phenotype
C) When one gene causes another gene to mutate
A reciprocal translocation occurs in an individual between chromosomes 4 and 18, and this translocation causes a disease in the individual. What is the most likely reason chromosome mutation causes a disease?
a) The translocation causes a break in the chromosome in a gene regulatory region.
b) Chromosomes with a translocation cannot replicate.
c) An individual with a translocation has some genes duplicated.
d) An individual with a translocation has some genes missing.
When Replacement of the original gene occurs ?
