región of gene X, which determines the length of the tail in mice, is mutated so the that transcription factors bind it at a much higher affinity compared to the wild-type sequence. What is the most likely phenotypic outcome? Tail length will not change because the enhancer is a non-coding sequence Tail length will increased due to increased activity of the gene's promoter Tail length will decreased because any mutation will cause a loss-of-function of these regulatory regions Not just the tail will be enlarged because increased activity of the enhancer will impact many genes

Gene Interactions

When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.

Gene Expression

Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.
