The compounds that cell qsture ts this blochenical pathway genel+ gene2. wwww evyme enayme2 0000 genel. gene2. genel genez+ genel- ene1- genez-

Answer 1

Row 1 : Orange , orange, orange. both genes 1 and 2 are present so the pathway will move towards the formation of orange coloured compound

Row2 : white, white, white. lacks gene 1 and will be unable to convert white to yellow. Gene 2 is present but the substrate yellow will not be produced. Therefore colour will be white

Row 3 : Yellow, yellow , yellow. Gene 1 encoded enzyme 1 will convert white to yellow. Due to absence of gene2 yellow would not be converted to orange. Thus the colour will be yellow

Row 4: white, white, white. Both genes are absent therefore the colour will remain white
