For example, when a plant experiences stress, like water deficit, it will employ a certain mechanism that allows the plant to survive the next exposure (see Fig. 1), often referred to as “Epigenetic” regulation. By application, epigenetics deals with the changes of the level of the gene expression without change in the DNA sequence, by DNA methylation, histone modifications, and or small RNA regulation. Plant epigenetic regulation is related to the Lamarckian theory of evolution. …

Today that instinct is expressed in “experience of disgust, for extroversion and social interaction, for xenophobia and other prejudices, and for the origins of the cultural differences” (p.99). Research of Syracuse University students showed that the one of the best ways to increase empathy between people is in working with younger children.
