D) base analog reactions

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Epigenetic responses refer to changes in gene expression that are not caused by alterations in the DNA sequence, but rather modifications to the DNA and/or histone proteins that regulate its accessibility. These modifications can be influenced by environmental signals, such as stress or diet, and thus epigenetic responses can strongly influence behavior. The other choices, base analog reconstruction, feedback, and reactions, are not relevant to epigenetics or environmental signals. Base analog responses could potentially be relevant, but this term is not commonly used in this context.
