The correct response is:
**heritable "on/off switches" for gene sequences due to environmental factors.**
Epigenetic changes refer to modifications that affect gene expression without altering the underlying DNA sequence. These changes can be influenced by environmental factors and can be passed on to the next generation.
**heritable "on/off switches" for gene sequences due to environmental factors.**
