When there is a well-established segment of heterochromatin on an interphase chromosome, there is usually a special barrier sequ

ence that prevents the heterochromatin from expanding along the entire chromosome. Gene A, which is normally expressed, has been moved by DNA recombination near an area of heterochromatin. None of the daughter cells produced after this recombination event express gene A, even though its DNA sequence is unchanged. What is the best way to describe what has happened to the function of gene A in these cells?

More simply, epigenetic inheritance is about parent-to-child experiences that do not occur through DNA.

It is a whole ecosystem, in which the trees anchor the growth of many other plant and animal species, hold the ground together to prevent erosion, and produce a lot of oxygen to support animal life. If you harvest too many of the trees, the local ecosystem stops being a forest and starts turning into something else
