Some animals like C. elegans, do not have 5-methylcytosine, but do have methylated adenine. It is not known that the methylated adenine replaces the function of methylated cytosine, but, if it does, which of the following would you predict? That removing the methyl groups from adenines in C. elegans would increase gene expression That removing the methyl groups from adenines in C. elegans would decrease gene expression That removing the methyl groups from adenines C. elegans would have no effect on gene expression

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.
