Answer:

Natural selection

Explanation:

Natural selection is a process where some organisms are able to reproduce more and survive better due to the presence of beneficial genetic traits in them. The other organisms of the same population that lack these traits are not able to survive and reproduce in the same way. The bacterial having drug resistance are able to survive in the presence of drugs in the surroundings. These bacteria will reproduce more and leave more progeny. Over the generations, the proportion of the bacteria with drug resistance will increase. This represents an example of natural selection.

What are the function of roots? ​
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Root, in botany, that part of a vascular plant normally underground. Its primary functions are anchorage of the plant, absorption of water and dissolved minerals and conduction of these to the stem, and storage of reserve foods. The root differs from the stem mainly by lacking leaf scars and buds, having a root cap, and having branches that originate from internal tissue rather than from buds.
