Thanks for explanation. It's good you brought in the discutions epigenetics. I read about the Hongerwinter where kids were born for many generations with health problems. Did this happen because of the bad nutrition and harsh condition the mothers lived in that period, so while the children were in womb some genes turned on or off to accommodate that? And are the "mutations" acquired through epigenetics imprinted forever in the genome or will they revert back once the external factor that caused that is removed?
