Answer:The correct reason is that the bacteria must amend themselves to the content of the nutrient in the novel medium, has to produce essential amino acids, growth factors, and other enzymes in order to survive.

In the field of microbiology, to inoculate means basically to present or insert one substance into another. For example, one could inoculate a culture of bacteria with some kind of chemical constituent, or it can be said that one introduces the chemical compound into the culture of the bacteria.

Disruptive selection or diversifying selection describes the changes in population genetics where extreme values for a trait are favored over intermediate values.

So according to this definition, the conclusion can be derived as :

The most common circumference(s) to be after 10 generations of diversifying selection will be greater than 2 cm and less than 2 cm.

Question 1
noname [10]
1 - A ground level plant develops curling tendrils that wrap around other objects so it can "climb".

This is a species changing over time as it was originally a ground level plant but began to climb higher.

2 - Over many generations.

This is because diversity takes time and has to be integrated through generations; for instance, marriage. In a family, it becomes more diverse after the next generation as each generation is likely to marry someone of another ethnicity and allow the family tree to become more diverse.

3 - Mutate or Survive

It depends on what it means by mutate - develop a mutation to make it adaptable? If that's the case, then mutations within the DNA would be a result of adaptation and increase survival. Otherwise, survive is the obvious answer as adaption allows for species to move around and live longer.

Hope this helps!
