Epigenetics Video response Epigenetics is a termed coined from epigenome. It is the study of occurrence of changes in the human genome as a result of gene modification expression raising from factors such as lifestyle. The PBS video presents the efforts and advancements made in epigenetics. It is fascinating to realize two people who are identical due to their DNA like twins turn up to be totally different due to alteration of their genes. Great effort has been dedicated in the study of epigenetics

about “Principles”. My first lesson was that principles‚ which are invariant values and long-lasting‚ act as life compasses for anyone who wants to succeed. At first‚ the term “principles” seemed unfamiliar to me. Thus‚ my brother explained them with many examples and stories of successful men such as Bill Gates‚ Steve Jobs. What he tried to imply was that basic principles were

forefront of scientific discovery for the past few years is that of epigenetics. The existence of epigenetics has profound implications on relating the biblical worldview to scientific discovery‚ and as scientists understand more about epigenetics‚ more biblical parallels are revealed. To understand implications that come with epigenetics‚ one must first understand epigenetics. So‚ what exactly is it? Simply put‚ epigenetics is the study of changes in gene expression not caused by alterations

Cells specialize because chromosomal material is influenced by the environment surrounding the cell. Something

The viewpoint of probabilistic epigenetics was new to me this semester‚ for the most part. I may have briefly learned about it in another class‚ but not enough information was given for me to really think about it. Before learning about probabilistic epigenetics‚ I just assumed that the interactionist viewpoints were correct‚ since they are what is taught largely in psychology classes. With my new knowledge of probabilistic epigenetics‚ I am rethinking the nature/nurture dichotomy

inheritance than just DNA sequence. Epigenetics also could play a role. Epigenetics can dictate which genes in an organism are turned on and off and because of this‚ an organism can have several changes in their gene expression without any changes to their actual DNA sequencing. This information can persist within an individual because the epigenetic markings get copied along with the DNA when cells reproduce. As evidence accumulates‚ it is speculated that epigenetics could have played a role in the

Epigenetics The depth of DNA and our genetic makeup can blow your mind. To consider that every human being can have the same foundation of genes‚ can make you wonder why do we all have different characteristics‚ traits and health issues. That all boils down to epigenetics‚ which are the markers in your genes that turn on or off‚ relatively like a light switch. It’s so compound that it has the ability to trigger certain things and change them within our bodies and they may not affect you at the time
