6 0

Hello there!

The principle of diffusion consists in the movement of substances through a membrane from a zone with high concentration, to a zone with low concentration, until the concentration is equal on both sides of the membrane.

An example of diffusion is the process that happens when we breathe. Two substances in the body that will move based on the principles of diffusion are Carbon Dioxide and Oxygen. Carbon Dioxide will move from the bloodstream to the alveoli, and Oxygen will move from the alveoli to the bloodstream.

Answer:

1. d. changes in the methylation patterns of <em>loci</em> involved in growth and metabolic disease

2. b. differences in the expression of metabolic genes

d. changes in histone acetylation patterns

Explanation:

Epigenetics refers to the study of heritable changes in gene expression which are not dependent on DNA sequence. Epigenetic mechanisms involve DNA methylation, histone modifications (acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation, etc) and regulatory non-coding RNA (ncRNA) pathways. These epigenetic mechanisms work together and mutually reinforce each other in order to modulate gene expression (either by activating or suppressing gene expression). In consequence, transcriptome data (e.g., genes differentially expressed in particular tissues/cells or stages of development) is an important piece of evidence indicating the existence of epigenetic modulation.
