Answer:

Epigenetic mark

Step-by-step explanation:

A methyl group attached to the nitrogenous base of one amino acid on the DNA is known to have effects on the expression and transcripcion of the genes, and this is also called epigenetic modifications. Therefore, an methyl group attached to the DNA is responsible for epigenetic modifications and so is an epigenetic mark.
