The sampling effect hypothesis is an explanation for why productivity increases when plant species diversity increases. Which of

these predictions follows from this hypothesis?
a) Productivity should be highest in the tropics, where species diversity is highest. '
b) The more mutualists are present (e.g. beneficial fungi, nitrogen-fixing plants), the higher the biomass.
c) If a certain "big-producer" is present, then biomass in a plot is high. If the big producer is absent, biomass is low.
d) There should be a strong positive relationship between the number of functional groups in an experimental plot and biomass.

<h2>The answer is C </h2>

If a certain “big-producer” is present, then biomass in a plot is high. If the big producer is absent, biomass is low follows from this hypothesis. Productivity means the condition, position, or action of remaining capacity to produce, organize, intensify the plant species. Therefore the sampling effect hypothesis is an explanation for why productivity increases when plant species diversity increases. The above mentioned prediction follows hypothesis.

Not one of the ways that bacteria have adapted to become resistant to antimicrobial agents.
Dominik [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

An antimicrobial agent is a natural or synthetic chemical that kills or inhibits the growth of microorganisms. Bacteria have a mechanism of transferring genomic material called <em>horizontal gene transfer</em><em>, the movement of genes between cells that are not direct descendants of one another</em>. Horizontal gene transfer allows cells to quickly acquire new characteristics and drives metabolic diversity. <u>One of the characteristics usually acquired is the resistance to antibiotics</u>.

Three mechanisms of genetic exchange are known in prokaryotes:

(1) transformation, in which free DNA released from one cell is taken up by another; (2) transduction, in which DNA transfer is mediated by a virus; and (3) conjugation, in which DNA transfer requires cell-to-cell contact and a conjugative plasmid in the donor cell.

Examples of genes transferred by transducing bacteriophages include multiple antibiotic resistance genes among strains of <em>Salmonella enterica </em>serovar <em>Typhimurium</em>, Shiga-like toxin genes in <em>Escherichia coli</em>, virulence factors in <em>Vibrio cholerae</em>, and genes encoding photosynthetic proteins in cyanobacteria.

Conjugative plasmids use a mechanism to transfer copies of themselves and the genes they encode, such as those for antibiotic resistance, to new host cells.
