Response in English: Genomic imprinting is a biological phenomenon in which certain genes are expressed differently, depending on whether they are inherited from the mother or father. This occurs because some genes are imprinted, or marked, by the addition or removal of chemical groups like methylation, which affects how the gene is expressed. This imprinting happens during the formation of sperm and egg cells, and the marks are retained, even after fertilization.As a result of imprinting, only one copy of the gene, either the maternal or paternal, is active in the offspring, while the other copy is silenced, even though both are present in the genome. This can have significant effects on the development and function of an organism. Imprinting is also thought to play a role in certain diseases, including some forms of cancer and syndrome disorders.Imprinting is an exception to Mendelian inheritance, in which both copies of a gene are expressed equally. It is an example of epigenetic regulation, meaning that it occurs via changes in gene expression without changing the underlying DNA sequence. The exact mechanisms behind why and how certain genes are imprinted are still being studied and understood, but it is known that imprinting can be influenced by environmental factors, such as nutrition and stress, and can vary between species, populations, and even individuals. .
