Inheritance that is not due to traditional DNA sequence from parents to offspring is called epigenetic inheritance. The understanding of epigenetics is only relatively recent and seeks to explain patterns of inheritance not predictable within the traditional understanding of how DNA is inherited from parent to daughter cells.

Is RNA silencing an environmentally-induced epigenetic change? Explain.
