Reproduction is especially vulnerable: fertility can be disrupted at temperatures below those that threaten survival, and males are often more sensitive than females. Heat can also alter the genetic and epigenetic information carried by sperm and eggs. These changes may be passed to offspring and affect how later generations respond to temperature. They are usually assumed to result from d
