Need help ASAP

The Martin Beetle, on the planet Kartune, has two genes that act in an epistatic manner to produce an interesting phenotype. The phenotype is the letter that grows on the Beetle's shell (all Martin Beetles have one). The letter is either "X", "T", or "H". We refer to corresponding beetles as "X-Beetles", "T-Beetles", or "H-Beetles".

In a cross between two X-Beetles, we observe 28 X-Beetles offspring, 83 T-Beetle offspring, and 356 H-Beetle offspring . What type of epistasis best explains this outcome? Justify your answer.

Explanation / Answer

Dominant epistatic

As ratio is 12:3:1
