The choices can be found elsewhere and as follows:

A)nothing, the genetic variation will stay the same
B)the genetic variation will decrease
C)the genetic variation will increase
<span>D)this type of gene transfer is impossible in eukaryotes
</span>
I believe the correct answer is option C. If two eukaryotes participate in lateral gene transfer, then the  genetic variation will increase. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Awnser : C Lacks genetic variation

Explanation : The major disadvantages of asexual reproduction are: Lack of diversity. Since the offsprings are genetically identical to the parent they are more susceptible to the same diseases and nutrient deficiencies as the parent. All the negative mutations persist for generations.

How does non-human life in an urban ecosystem differ from that in an undeveloped forest ecosystem? (Site 2)
Doss [256]
Non-human life differs from that because the environments are covered with like sewers, buildings, and roads. Green spaces such as parks, backyards, and undeveloped lots are scattered in among the developed areas instead of all connected together. Plants and animals have to deal with exposure to toxins from vehicles and loss of habitat and food sources.

Which domains include species whose cells have cell walls
coldgirl [10]
The answer is all domains.

There are three domains of life - Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya.
All organisms that belong to the domains Archaea or Bacteria have cell walls. In the domain Eukarya, there are some groups that have cell walls and others that do not. For example, plants and fungi from the domain Eukarya have cell walls.
