Insect populations can develop resistance to insecticides over time. The evolution of resistance is associated with an increase in the frequency of adaptive genes in the population.
- In the case above described it is expected that a few mosquitoes in the population were resistant to DDT before it was ever used (Option a is correct).
- Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) is a pesticide used in agriculture.
- After exposure to DDT, those individuals in the mosquito population that didn't carry gene variants (i.e., alleles) associated with the resistance to this pesticide died.
- Subsequently, insects having adaptive alleles associated with DDT resistance survived and reproduced, thereby increasing the frequency of adaptive genes/alleles in the population.

Explanation:
I can't really give an explanation for this one but if you look up gram negative bacteria and go to images you can find a photo that is very similar to the one you show that has labels.
The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:
- going to a tailor and having a suit made to fit you
- selecting a lottery prize-winner by means of a random drawing
- going to a shoe store and trying on shoes until you find a pair that fits
- ordering the lunch special at a restaurant without looking at the menu
- picking out a video that you haven't seen yet
Answer:
Going to a shoe store and trying on shoes until you find a pair that fits
Explanation:
Antibodies are the immunoglobulin molecules secreted by the B cells which help the body providing the immunity as they interact with the antigen and help immune system to produce a response.
The variety of the B cells are produced by the body in response to different antigens which produce different type of antibodies. This interaction of antigen and antibodies is known as the complementation and just appear like if you are going to a shop to buys a pair of shoes and tries different shoes to find the best shoe of best size.
Thus, the selected option is correct.
