Other than passing genes from parents to offspring, bacteria are also capable of injecting their genes directly into other bacte

Explanation:

Bacteria usually divides by fission. This produces offspring that are the exact copies of the parent unless a mutation occurs in the offspring.

Occasionally, however, bacteria cells exchange genetic material through conjugation. This exchange is akin to crossing over in higher organisms, result in genetic recombination of the bacterial DNA. This increases genetic diversity of the bacteria cells in the population. This genetic diversity improves the population's success in adapting to changes in the environment.

It is a very interesting question - the technology is real and the research on eDNA published in a journal in 2017.

eDNA stands for enviornmental DMA sampling. It allows scientist to test water samples for the presence of the DNA of the invasive fish species. It is more effective than traditional methods of sampling because it does not require trapping or sighting of the invasive species. Water samples can be collected anywhere any time and the DNA results are as accurate and detailed as collected from the invasive species themselves. It provides a complete picture of what invasive species are there.

What was the impact of the use of fossil fuels during the industrial revolution?
IrinaK [193]

Impact of the use of fossil fuels during the industrial revolution was it made possible a huge increase in the amount of productive energy available to humans.

The development of machines, including steam engines and the internal combustion engine, made it possible to exploit vast new resources of energy stored in fossil fuels, specifically coal and oil. The fossil fuels revolution greatly increased the energy available to human societies during industrial revolution.

Contrary to this fossil fuel have some disadvantages like when fossil fuels are burned, they release large amounts of carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, into the air. Greenhouse gases trap heat in our atmosphere, causing global warming.

Because Precambrian rocks are in short supply, hence fossil evidence is harder to find.they only discovers sections of some Precambrian rocks there were no bones or shells to be permineralized.
