Check All That Apply Questions Feeding a specific diet to female mice may result in an increased proportion of pseudoagouti (darker) offspring if ______ the female carries the A^vy allele. ______ the offspring have the genotype A^vy _____ the transposon at the A^vy locus in the progeny is hypermethylated. Genetics and epigenetics are similar in that they affect phenotype. Compare and contrast genetics and epigenetics in terms of mitotic inheritance meiotic inheritance and reversibility of changes.

Solution

Epigenetic modifications, such as DNA methylation are capable of altering gene expression and are capable of being inherited. Complex traits, like human stature/height, fertility, and food metabolism or hereditary defects, which respond to environmental or nutritional condition are epigenetically inherited.

Meiotic inheritence includes gamete generation and the development of primordial germ cells. Reversible changes of epigenetic patterns includes erasure of DNA methylation patterns in the zygote, erasure and reconstitution of DNA methylation patterns in PGCs,
