Answer:
Phenotypic changes:
When Rhodobacter is cultured in total darkness for multiple generations, the ability to produce it's own photopigment reduces with time with little or no ability to undergo its own photosynthesis due to absence of enzymes or pigment for photosynthesis.
It becomes expensive for the Rhodobacter to undergo photosynthesis. This allows mutants that can grow in the dark to take over from the culture grown in the dark.
Evolutionary processes:
It's natural selection that allows the fittest organism to survive. As in the case of the mutants
Latex balloons is the answer.
Answer:
Wingless offspring
Explanation:
Complementation is the terminology used for finding difference in the mutation of same or different gene.
Two groups with same complementation have failed to complement each other.
Thus, two wingless flies will have the same genotype i.e “ww”
When two wingless flies are crossed following offspring are produced
ww * ww
ww, ww, ww, ww
All the offspring are wingless too
