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.

Temka [501]

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

<h3>\huge \boxed{ \mathbb{ \bold{  \purple{ \: cell}}}}</h3>

Explanation:

All the living organisms on this Earth are made up of microscopic units called cells. It is basic structural unit for all the organisms. The cells are the building block of all the living organisms. Our body is composed of trillion of cells. They carry out the functional activities of our life. A cell can be defined as a basic , structural and functional unit of life capable of independent existence. The cell was first discovered by Robert Hooke in 1665 AD. As we know that all the living organisms are made up of cells. These cells are developed as a result of a division of pre-existing cells. All the cells are same in chemical composition and metabolic processes. The function of an organism as a whole is the outcome of combined activities and interactions of the constituent cells. The cell is known as the fundamental , structural and functional unit of life.

Hope I helped!

Best regards!
