B) Children who are exposed to certain experiences may find their genes mutate to adapt to their experience.
C) Parents engage in gene selection when selecting mates and therefore are more likely to have children that share traits that are congruent with the experiences they can offer their child.
D) Children adapt quickly to the environment and in doing so rely on sometimes recessive genes that "kick in" when the environment requires a certain skill set.
