Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The epigenetic framework emphasizes the bidirectional relationship between genes and the environment, suggesting that gene expression can be influenced by experiences and behavior, and in turn influence future behavior and experiences. This framework recognizes the role of both nature and nurture in shaping development, but emphasizes the complex and dynamic interactions between the two rather than seeing them as separate or fixed. Choice A is partially correct, as genetic makeup does influence responses to the environment, but it does not restrict development to one or a few outcomes as in choice B. Choice D does not accurately reflect the epigenetic framework, as it suggests that individuals have complete control over their environments, rather than recognizing the bidirectional relationship between genes and environment.
