Our genes can be affected by the environment and change the way our traits are displayed, called the phenotype. However, changes in phenotype have an underlying genotypic source. Epigenetics or epigenetic changes are changes in the way traits are expressed as an effect of the environment (i.e. food we ate, chemicals in the body, environmental stresses), without changes in the DNA. Simply put, in epigenetics, some parts of the DNA are turned on or off in response to environmental conditions.
<span><em>Whether living or non living:</em>
<em>When you put a sample of tissue under a microscope, if u can see a cell membrane, and can identify some cell structures like nucleus, mitochondria, vacuoles etc. , it was living, if not, its a non living thing.</em></span>
<span><em>However some cells don't have a nucleus( eg. prokaryotic cells), but all cells have a cell membrane or some sort of protective covering to contain the cell's insides. </em></span>
<span><em>To check if your specimen maybe-once living, maybe-still living "something", is living, get a look at it through an electron microscope - thats the best microscope ever- and see if the mitochondria's making any ATP( adenosine triphosphate, source of energy for most organisms), if it does, its living. If not, no</em></span><em>n living. :)</em>

Natural system is former when various components get grouped together for a particular function
Excitable cells like those found in muscle tissue are expected to be present in higher quantities in arteries than in veins.
<h3>What are Excitable cells?</h3>
Excitable cells are defined as those cells that are capable of generating electrical impulses when stimulated. Example of such cells include:
- muscle cells( smooth, skeletal and cardiac)
The artery is made up of higher amount of smooth muscles than the veins therefore, excitable cells like those found in muscle tissue are expected to be present in higher quantities in arteries than in veins.
