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.

Use the balanced equation of a nitrogen cycle pathway below to support the conservation of matter and energy.
Nastasia [14]

Law of thermodynamics states that matter and energy cannot be destroyed or created, but can be converted from one form to another. A balanced equation ensures that this basic principle is observed.

On the left-hand side of the equation (the reactants), there are 2 Nitrogen moles and 8 Hydrogen moles. After the reaction, the molecules are rearranged. Nonetheless, the moles of Nitrogen and Hydrogen in the products remain the same.

The failure of the attempt to reintroduce clapper rails in California was an example of the _____.
Lemur [1.5K]

The correct answer is option D, difficulty of redesigning workable ecosystems

Reason -

The area that was redesigned into an ecosystem actually failed to attract the endangered species of clapper rails in California because of the following two reasons –

a) Failed attempt of restoration of Cord grass ( a tree which is a dominant tree in the nesting habitat of clapper rail) . Even if few such trees were there they could not grow to their full height and thus were incapable of providing adequate nesting cover

b) Due to the lack of predatory insect, some herbivore insect in the ecosystem attacked the green grasses thereby making the nesting inadequate.
