An experiment was conducted to determine the effects of temperature on gene expression in Himalayan rabbits. After applying an ice pack to the backs of several rabbits, it was discovered that the pigmentation (color) gene in rabbit fur was active at temperatures below 25°C but inactive at temperatures above 25°C . Which of the following conclusions best supports the experiment above? %C2%A0 (1 point) Responses Genes are not affected by environmental factors. Genes are not affected by environmental factors. The DNA in Himalayan rabbits is similar to other types of rabbits. The DNA in Himalayan rabbits is similar to other types of rabbits. DNA expression may be regulated by enzymes. DNA expression may be regulated by enzymes. Genes may be regulated by environmental factors like temperature. Genes may be regulated by environmental factors like temperature.
