Some lizards can undergo both sexual and asexual reproduction. Being able to reproduce asexually benefits the organism during ti

mes when mates are hard to find. Under what circumstances would asexual reproduction be most beneficial?
a The species finds its life span is increasing rapidly.
b The species finds itself falling prey to a new and well-adapted predator.
c The species needs to adapt to a dwindling source of food.
d The species needs to develop resistance to a new type of disease.

I did the test and the answer was B.  The species finds itself falling prey to a new and well-adapted predator.

A would decrease the need for reproduction, so that's not it.
C wouldn't be helpful - less food wouldn't want you to produce more organisms, it would mean more competition for less food
D wouldn't be helpful, asexual reproduction creates a limited gene pool that is less likely to be resistant to diseases
So B is the answer, because the more of the species there are, the greater chance of survival.

Bad White [126]

The bacteria, Angelinus ballerinea secretes a compound that inhibits the growth of other Gram-positive bacteria. Scientists take this compound and add chemical groups to it to make it more stable for use in humans to treat bacterial infections. This is an example of antibiotic.

<h3>What is antibiotic?</h3>
  • Antibiotics from the key class of glycopeptides can stop this process.
  • Through five H-bonds, these antibiotics bind to the C-terminal d-Ala-d-Ala of the murein precursor, lipid II, and immature peptidoglycan, preventing transglycosylation and/or transpeptidation during the production of the cell wall.
  • Contrarily, antibiotics have easier access to the thick, porous peptidoglycan layer in the cell walls of Gram-positive bacteria, allowing them to more easily enter the cell and/or interact with the peptidoglycan itself.
  • The two main antibiotics that prevent the synthesis of bacterial cell walls are penicillins and cephalosporins.
  • Penicillin is one of many antibiotics that assault the bacterial cell wall in order to operate.
  • The medications specifically stop the bacteria from producing peptidoglycan, a chemical that gives the cell wall the toughness it needs to live in the human body.
