Natural selection is basically when organisms with the best traits survive and pass on their good traits to their offspring so that they will adapt easily and survive. Organisms who do not have ‘good traits’ that help them adapt and escape predators will be killed or eaten before they reproduce.
So in the end, natural selection is a form of evolution that allows the ‘fittest’ animals to survive and reproduce, while weeding out the unfit.
Answer:
Due to no transfer of resistance allele.
Explanation:
The gene flow was not the cause of antibiotic resistance because the characteristics can't be transferred from one generation to the next generation. The organisms are evolved to become an antibiotic resistance due to their environmental conditions and this resistance quality is only present in the existing population and the alleles that are responsible for this resistance can't be transferred from the bacteria to the next generation so the experiment showed that gene flow was not the cause of antibiotic resistance
B. Histones is the correct answer.
The purple spots on the colorless background of corn kernels observed by Barbara McClintock were the result of the transposition of the Ds elements out of the color gene.
<h3>What are the genetic elements found in corn?</h3>
- A transposable element is removed from one spot in the DNA and inserted into a different site in the DNA during the process of genetic transposition, which allows genes to shift their location on chromosomes.
- The first recognized genetic instability was caused by genetic transposition.
- The size of the tissue patch displaying the reversion phenotype increases as a reversion event happens earlier in the kernel development.
- Barbara McClintock saw purple dots on maize kernels with an otherwise colorless background.
- These spots were caused by the Ds components of the color gene being transposed.
- The wild-type (purple) phenotype manifests itself in cells where Ds from the color gene "C" sequence has been lost.
Hence, Barbara McClintock discovered purple patches on the colorless backdrop of maize kernels due to the transposition of the Ds elements out of the color gene.
