Question
Chapter 25, Problem 93P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The process of restoration of memory in mice by scientists must be explained. Also, explanation should be provided for how this supports their theory about epigenetics and cognitive.
Concept Introduction:
Memory is persistence of learning something new which can be stored for future use. It is caused due to activation of some particular neurons.
Epigenetics is the study of heritable changes in gene expression in which no mutation (alteration of DNA sequence) is involved.
Cognitive memory is learning something which is unsupervised which means it is autonomous.
