Answer: epigenetic mechanisms

Explanation: Epigenetics is the study of heritable changes in gene expression that occur without any accompanying changes to the basic DNA sequence, which ultimately results in a change in the observable characteristics (phenotype) without a change in the genotype(genetic traits).

Epigenetics creates a layer of control that determines which genes are active and which genes are dormant in particular cells in the body, and can be influenced by certain factors like age and environment.

The difference in genetic expression between Jenn and Clara could be attributed to Jenn's abuse when she was 8years old and this may have triggered Jenn's schizophrenia.

In more modern history, we can highlight some other steps the government has taken to achieve gender equality. However, the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action is probably the most important. The signatories to these two declarations are all member states of the United Nations Council. The purpose of adopting these declarations is the participation of women in all spheres of public and private life and equal participation in decision-making in the economy, society, culture, and politics.

From an economic point of view, India is one of the leading countries in the world in the fields of IT, pharmaceuticals and biotechnology.
