例句

1·Epigenetic processes are chemical reactions tied to neither nature nor nurture but representing what researchers have called a "third component".表观遗传过程是一种化学反应，与天生和后天培养都没有关系，但它代表了研究人员所说的“第三种成分”。
-
2·Other epigenetic processes appear to occur randomly, while others are normal, such as those that guide embryonic cells as they become heart, brain, or liver cells, for example.其他的表观遗传过程似乎是随机发生的，而其他过程则是正常的，比如那些引导胚胎细胞成为心脏、大脑或肝细胞的过程。
-
3·Studies of animals, for example, have shown that when a rat experiences stress during pregnancy, it can cause epigenetic changes in a fetus that lead to behavioral problems as the rodent grows up.例如，对动物的研究表明，老鼠在怀孕期间经历压力会导致胎儿表观遗传发生变化，进而导致啮齿动物在成长过程中出现行为问题。
-
4·When animals are cloned, epigenetic changes can occur.克隆动物后，表观遗传的变化就会发生。
-
5·And drinking and smoking can have epigenetic effects in offspring.吸烟酗酒也会对子女产生外遗传影响。
