<span>Bipedalism, or the ability to walk on two legs, is one of the things that separates humans from apes. Walking on two legs isn't a characteristic exclusive to humans: birds do it, so do kangaroos, and even our closest cousins, the apes, as well as most of the other primates, do it occasionally. </span>

Answer:

carry thousands of genes

Explanation:

Genes are contained in chromosomes, which are in the cell nucleus. A chromosome contains hundreds to thousands of genes. Every normal human cell contains 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46 chromosomes. Some traits are caused by mutated genes that are inherited or that are the result of a new gene mutation.

Some molecules found in foods are known to be capable of driving DNA methylation or DNA demethylation. For example, folic acid (
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer: Eating excessive quantities of such molecules could deregulate this process, increasing methylation and repressing the expression of genes that should normally be expressed.

Explanation:

DNA methylation is one of the epigenetic mechanisms involved in the regulation of gene expression, because it is a process by which methyl groups are added to DNA.

Methylation then modifies the function of DNA when it is found in the promoter gene, it is essential for normal development and is associated with a number of key processes, including genomic imprinting, inactivation of the X chromosome, repression of repeating elements, aging, and carcinogenesis. Usually, <u>it acts to suppress gene transcription.</u>

For example, folic acid is essential for the rapid cell division that occurs during early fetal development and it also plays an important role in methylation and thus in gene regulation. <u>The metabolism of these vitamins is aimed at achieving adequate levels of  DNA methylation, necessary for the cellular processes</u>. Eating excessive quantities of such molecules could deregulate this process, <u>increasing methylation and repressing the expression of genes that should normally be expressed</u>.
