Question

Which of the following occurs when the phenotypic effect of one gene contributes to the phenotypic effect of another gene?

Qualitative

Epistasis

Quantitative

Additive

Definition Definition Observable physical traits or characteristics of an organism, which are determined by its genetic makeup (genotype) as well as environmental factors. These traits can include anything from eye color or height to behavior or disease susceptibility. Understanding an organism's phenotype is important in fields such as genetics, medicine, and ecology.
