Precipitation, soil, temperature, humidity, and altitude
population density are habitats, food, mates, and ... Decreases.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
B is the most likely consequence because of the following facts we are told:
- After apple trees were introduced, some apple maggots began feeding from and laying their eggs on apple trees
- Adult apple maggots will only mate on the type of tree on which they were born.
This provides a geographical isolation (because they are feeding and laying eggs on separate trees) and reproductive isolation (because they will only mate on the type of tree on which they are born).
These two factors increase the chances that apple maggots feeding on apple trees will only encounter those who have mated on the same tree, and continue to mate this way. Over time, the populations (i.e. apple tree vs hawthorn tree) will intermix less and less. This will mean the genetic pool will become distinct, and natural selection will be acting differently (different habitats and different genes), encouraging speciation.
Streptococcus infection carries all the symptoms mentioned.
<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>
<em>Streptococcus pneumoniae</em> and <em>Diplococcus pneumoniae</em> are the organisms that gram positive bacteria. These bacteria enters the respiratory system from droplet method propagation which is through aerosol or water droplet inhalation which are infected with these bacteria. These bacteria leads to the severe antigen antibody reaction inside lungs which leads to high rate of mucous secretion. This leads to formation of pneumonia.
These bacteria are mainly seen in tropical countries with warm climate and humid environment. These bacteria doesn't spread through contagious methods like touching. But the protection must be taken as these patients cough can contain lakhs of these bacteria which are enough to infect a healthy individual.
Somatic mutations can be passed on. B is the correct answer
