Answer:

The correct answer is option D. "Inhibited DNA transcription".

Step-by-step explanation:

Epigenetics is the study of how the traits of an organism can change by external influences that alter gene expression without changing the genetic sequence itself. One of the result of epigenetics is to inhibit DNA transcription, causing that some genes are silenced. Therefore, Inhibited DNA transcription is a result of epigenetics and not a process that can influence epigenetics.
