For the expression of traits, genes provide only the potentiality, and the environment provides the opportunity. Comment on the veracity of the statement.

Answers (1)

Genes carry the potentiality for the expression of a trait, i.e. phenotype and are responsible for inheritance. Phenotype depends on many factors. If a trait gets combined with a dominant one, it may get recessive, and the survival depends on the natural selection passage. Therefore, the opportunity for expression of a particular trait is provided by and depends on the environment.
