Answer 1

Biology:The theory that an individual is developed by successive differentiation of an unstructured egg rather than by a simple enlarging of a preformed entity.

Geology: Change in the mineral content of a rock because of outside influences.

Answer 2

Epigenetics is the study of reversible changes in gene expression that occur without alterations to the underlying DNA sequence. This can include modifications to DNA or histone proteins that can influence how genes are turned on or off. Epigenetic changes can be influenced by various factors such as the environment, lifestyle, and even early life experiences.
