Contents: Select epigenetic "marks" are retained from generation to generation -- Inter- and transgenerational transmission of epigenetic marks is via germline cells -- approximately 97 per cent of human genetic diseases are likely caused by epigenetic inheritance -- Epigenetics allows for redefinition of terms in descriptive biology -- Epigenetic inheritance leads to the zygote as the primary level of selection -- The cellular-molecular approach to biology is predictive.
