Answer:

The correct answer would be C) The genetic variation will increase.

Horizontal or lateral gene transfer refers to the transmission of genetic material between two different genomes which is distinguished from a transfer of genetic material from parent to the offspring that is, vertical gene transfer.

For example, transformation, transduction, and conjugation result in horizontal gene transfer in bacteria.

It increases genetic variation of the population and plays important role in adaptation as well as evolution.

____________ is the process by which inhibitory transmitters cause the inside of the neuron to become more negative.
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Hyperpolarization

Explanation:

At the synapse, neurotransmitters bind to neurotransmitter receptors in the postsynaptic neuron’s plasma membrane. This results in the opening of the ions channels and the flow of specific ions to change the voltage across the membrane. An inhibitory neurotransmitter inhibits the firing of the action potential by making the inside of the membrane more negative. It is called hyperpolarization (inhibition).

It may occur when the neurotransmitter opens the Cl– or K+ channels to allow the movement of chloride ions into the cell while permitting the outward movement of potassium ions to make the inside of the cell more negative.
