No there is no selective pressure that confers an advantage to those who do taste it.

<h3>What is PTC?</h3>

Despite the fact that PTC isn't found in nature, tasting other bitter substances—many of which are toxins—that do occur naturally has a high correlation with taste sensitivity.

In order to defend themselves from being eaten, plants develop a range of harmful substances. Early humans developed the capacity to distinguish bitter tastes as a safeguard against ingesting dangerous plants. There are roughly 30 genes in humans that produce bitter taste receptors. People may taste a large variety of bitter substances because each receptor can interact with a number of different molecules.

irina [24]

Answer: d. mothering style affecting the developing brain

Explanation:

Epigenetics is the study of features or "phenotypes" which do not involve changes in the DNA sequence. Epigenetics is about how genes are expressed and used instead of the DNA sequence of the genes themselves.

The behaviour of a person's genes depends not only on the DNA sequence of the genes, but also on so-called epigenetic factors. Effects on genes from the external environment can affect disease, and some of these effects can be inherited in humans.

So, Mothering style which affects the brain development is an exampe of epigenetics which do not show any genetic feature.

Hence, the correct option is d.
