Identical twins are ideal participants in epigenetic research because the twins are _________. a. genetically identical and may develop similar epigenetic patterns over time b. genetically identical but may develop different epigenetic patterns over time c. genetically different but may develop similar epigenetic patterns over time d. genetically different and may develop different epigenetic patterns over time

Respuesta :

Answer:

b. Genetically identical but may develop different epigenetic patterns over time.

Explanation:

Twins are essentially clones of each other, they have identical genomes. Despite this, their epigenetics may differ due to the fact that these secondary genetic controls depend on the environment an organism exists in. For this reason, given enough time apart and sufficiently different conditions, twins will develop different epigenetic patterns.
