These changes can he also he directly caused by the environment as part of an animal s stress response and then inherited hy later generations without needing to wait for the DNA to randomly mutate into a favorable configuration. Many epigenetic changes are found in human hrain development and human evolution as well. In this way, evolution may have evolved to operate at a different, more tunable level.
