The correct answer is option C, Mutations have arisen that may have altered allele frequencies
There have been several instances where mutation in the gene of an insect is caused due to the harmful external environmental condition which are either created or occurs naturally. Usually, the organisms evolve themselves to sustain in an adverse environment condition. In the process of evolution, they go through the process of positive genetic mutation but sometimes the mutation may also produce negative effect on the DNA of an species through wrong or inefficient pairing/coding. Here in this case it can be stated that the chemical sprayed on insects might have attacked the gene pool of the insects thereby producing adverse genetic mutation.
Answer:
a. A hypothesis that does not generate a testable prediction is not useful.
Explanation:
In the scientific method, we generate a hypothesis to explain a phenomenon. After this, it is necessary to create a method to test the hypothesis and make predictions. Moving forward, we test this methodology, generating results and reject or not reject the hypothesis. If the hypothesis can't be tested, the scientific method can't be applied.
Answer:
1. the F' plasmid.
2. the bacterial chromosome
3. the bacterial chromosome
4. the F' plasmid.
Explanation:
The F' plasmid is an extrachromosomal DNA molecule composed of genes that act during the transference of genetic material. This plasmid can also be defined as an episome capable of transferring itself into another bacterial chromosome. The bacteria that contain F factor are named F+, while bacteria without this factor are called F-. During conjugation, the F+ factor interacts with F- cells to enable DNA transference among bacteria.
