Environmental Factors

"does the effect of micro-environmental factors on a street's appeal for adults' bicycle transport vary across different macro-environments? an experimental study.", by Mertens L, Van Cauwenberg J, Ghekiere A, Van Holle V, De Bourdeaudhuij I, Deforche B, Nasar J, Van de Weghe N, Van Dyck D. pone.0136715.g001: An overview of the environmental factors and their respective levels used in the choice tasks (ref.

Environmental factors, as pertaining to genetics, describes exposures to substances where we live or work, actions that can increase an individual's risk of disease or stressful scenarios. Genetic studies typically take environmental factors into consideration, as these exposures can increase an individual's risk of genetic damage or disease. Many points in the environment influence our health. Recognizing environmental factors is important for understanding genomics. Environmental factors can lead to hereditary damage that causes disease. Since completion of the Human Genome Project, we have seen remarkable enhancement in our capacity to measure hereditary variation. A vital difficulty to recognizing the impact of genomics on disease will entail determining just how to best measure, integrate, and examine environmental data as part of our genomic research studies.
