Inheritance

"...pigenetics: Adapting Without Changing DNA Here's where reproduction gets truly subtle. For decades, biology taught that only DNA sequence determines inheritance - that acquired characteristics can't be inherited. A giraffe that stretches its neck doesn't produce offspring with longer necks."

"...gmented operations, profitability-first). Heritability: Rocket Internet's playbook - replicate Western winners in emerging markets - was Jumia's inheritance. But the DNA assumed infrastructure that didn't exist. Differential survival: Jumia survived by retreating and adapting."

"...Preference Becomes Law Fisher's runaway selection model requires four conditions: 1. Initial slight preference (can be random) 2. Genetic/cultural inheritance of preference 3. Correlation between trait and reproductive success 4. Feedback amplification Supreme satisfied all four in business terms: Initi..."

"...he first 7-14 days post-germination, the seedling runs entirely on cotyledon reserves. Photosynthesis hasn't started yet. The plant is living off its inheritance, burning through the energy bank its parent provided. If true leaves don't develop before cotyledon reserves deplete, the seedling dies."

"...: Maintain successful genetic configurations; avoid accumulating deleterious mutations ("genetic load"); offspring closely resemble parents (reliable inheritance). - Costs: Slow to adapt to environmental change; can't explore new genetic possibilities quickly; vulnerable to competitors or pathogens evolvin..."
