Can sometimes influence expression of genes?
what can somtimes influence expression of genes
What are modifier genes?

How are Genotype phenotype alike?
Genotype is the specific combination of genes that contribute to a trait that an organism has. (For example, the genes for being tall).Phenotype is the expression of the trait which is partially influenced due to the genotype and partly by the environment (Even if you have the genes for being tall, if you are malnourished you will not grow as tall).
What are modifier?
It refers to genes that have small quantitative effects on the level of expression of another gene.
What are genes that are turned off called?
The genes are controlled by the control elements in their upstream sequence. It can also regulated at RNA level by si, sh RNAs. The regulation is basically influenced by the surrounding environments. Proteins mediated the regulation of gene expression.

What is the external expression of genes?
genotype
What is it when interacting genes results in the equal phenotype expression of all genes?
Polygenes .
What are genes that segregate independently do not influence each other's inheritance?
Genes that segregate independently do not influence each other's inheritance because they are located on different chromosomes. However, the expression of genes that segregate independently can still influence one another.
Genes at one locus that affect the expression of genes at a different locus are said to be?
epistatic
Is genetics DNA?
No, DNA is the substance from which genes are made. Genetics is the study of genes and their expression.
