Which Statement Below Defines Epistasis?

There are many genes that can be inherited as either “dominant” or recessive. For example, the trait of being tall is determined by two dominant alleles (the gene responsible for height) which together define how much expression will occur from this particular set-of DNA sequence; someone who has just one normal version plus an extra short dormant strand would still show up on paper as having Genotype AA(GG). When both parents have these same types but varying numbers – they’re said to carry satellite traits/genes influencing overall bodily development such as muscle mass vs slimness.

What Is A Recessive Epistatic Gene?

Recessive epistasis is when the recessive allele of one gene masks any other alleles. This means that you only get traits from this “hidden” copy and none from your second parent’s genes, but if both parents were carriers then their offspring may display a slightly different color than expected because there could be some dominant masking going on too!
