What will happen if the modified allele produces a non-functional enzyme or no enzyme?

Step-by-step solution

In the first case, the modified allele is equivalent to the unmodified allele, i.e., it will produce the same phenotype/trait, i.e., result in the transformation of substrate S. Such equivalent allele pairs are very common. But, if the allele produces a non-functional enzyme or no enzyme, the phenotype may be effected. The phenotype/trait will only be dependent on the functioning of the unmodified allele . The unmodified (functioning) allele, which represents the original phenotype is the dominant allele and the mo
