In a population of beetles, about 1 in every 6 beetles is slightly smaller and lighter in color than the others. the small, ligh

ter beetles are a little better at evading predators and this increases the chances of survival and reproduction. what is likely to happen to the representation of the smaller, lighter beetle in the overall population over time? will the ration remain at roughly 6:1, or will it change? if it changes, why will it change, and in what direction?

<span>Eventually the smaller, lighter beetles will out breed the larger, darker ones. Because they can avoid predators more easily, allowing them to reproduce more often and with better results. The larger, darker beetles will inevitably be found more often by predators and as such won't be able to reproduce as often, or as safely, as the smaller, lighter beetles.</span>

A student inoculates a gelatin tube and places it at 37C for the week. When he comes back he takes the tube out of the incubator
ycow [4]
<h2>Gelatin </h2>

Explanation:

Gelatin is a differential medium which tests the ability of an organism to produce an exoenzyme, called gelatinase (this enzyme hydrolyzes gelatin)

When gelatin is at a temperature below 32°C (or within a few degrees thereof), it is a semisolid material and at temperatures above 32°C, it is a viscous liquid

When gelatin is broken down, it can no longer solidify and if an organism can break down gelatin, the areas where the organism has grown will remain liquid even if the gelatin is refrigerated

No the conclusion by student is not right because the tube must be runny after incubation followed by refrigeration to be considered gelatinase positive
