The epigenome can modify the way DNA is structured or silence parts of the Genome. The three modifications that have been most studied are: Cytokinesis, protein synthesis modification, zygote restructuring DNA methylation, histone modification, and the interaction of microRNAs with the genome Post-translational modification, germline mutations, and single-nucleotide polymorphisms Developmental modifications, environmental modifications, and nutritional […]
How species and communities evolve? Does evolution significantly influence the structure of the future community and population structure?
A patient contracts C-difficile after a prolonged course of Intravenous antibiotics. This is an example of: MicroRNA failing to perform its function due to an overgrowth of C-difficile bacteria A situation that is unrelated to epigenetics The microbiome interacting with the epigenome to influence health status Methylation of intestinal cells by the antibiotic use which […]

Why is Down syndrome the most common trisomy disorder seen among live-born infants? The extra alleles from trisomies of larger chromosomes are embryo lethal. Nondisjunction occurs more frequently for chromosome 21 than for any other chromosome. Trisomies resulting from nondisjunction express fewer alleles than trisomies that result from unbalanced translocations. The incidence may not be […]
Sugar cane production in Jamaica is often done as monoculture on large acreage of lands ranging from 10 to hundreds of hectares, on the island’s coastal plains. Cultivation varies according to the existing conditions, but the trend is for more mechanisation. At present, sugar cane is irrigated at efficiencies between 35 and 40 percent in […]
