This interaction process is an example of epigenesis.

Epigenesis is processes in which living organisms such as plants, animals and fungi grow from a seed, egg or spore through a series of steps in which cells differentiate and organs form. The theory of epigenesis which was created by C. F. Wolff claimed that structures emerge during development that are not initially formed.

Answer:

The correct answer is epigenesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Epigenetic is the process in which an organism such as plants, fungi, and animals are developed from egg, spore or seed through a step by step process and differentiated to form tissue and organs.

In this process, the environmental condition can influence the gene expression to change and lead to positive or negative effects.

Thus, the correct answer is epigenesis.
