PHP â Sort Functions For Arrays. In this chapter, we will go through the following PHP array sort functions: sort() â sort arrays in ascending order. rsort() â sort arrays in descending order. asort() â sort associative arrays in ascending order, according to the value.
Environmental factors that can affect gene expression. Exposing a fetus, infant, or child to a chemical or nutritional (or other) stressor during development can affect the risk of disease development even into adulthood. The mechanisms involved are probably epigenetics (Boekelheide et al. 2012).
Now, we wonder how the environment can affect how genes control the function of cells (gene expression). Some environmental exposures can affect gene expression through epigenetic or other processes. Epigenetic processes may be involved in the development of diabetes and obesity.
