Well most likely the 5% had developed or had gained a trait from an ancestor or parent that made them immune to the insecticide that they used.

Answer: The living termites had genes that the dead termites did not have.

Explanation: Variety in a population's genetic characteristics helps ensure that some individuals will be able to survive a change in the environment. The insects survived because they had genes that made them resistant to the pesticide.

Which three of the following entities are acellular?.
arsen [322]

Answer:

Prions archea, viroids bacteria, viruses protists are acellular while fungi is cellular.

While viruses have indeed been closely researched for more than a century for infections of people and animals, most viruses, particularly those that infect microorganisms, are still poorly understood. 

Pathogenic RNA molecules are known as viroids. Contagious protein particles are identified as prions. Viruses are larger than that of viroids. Viroids are larger than prions in size.

Molds, wild yeasts, as well as mushrooms are examples of fungi. Numerous fungi are multicellular and also have nuclei in their cells. A protein-encased DNA or RNA core defines viruses being non - cellular organisms. Some scientists disagree with the notion that viruses are living things.

The three main forms of adaptations are behavioural, structural, and physiological adaptations that are based on the way how genetic variation get communicated. Many species have all those types of combinations. For an instance, behavioural adaptations are bird's calling and migration.
