Answer:

The correct answer would be D.The population will still be susceptible to genetic mutations.

As the entire field is planted with genetically identical seeds of a single type of crop, it would have the least biodiversity and variations.  

It would make the entire population vulnerable to any change in an environment.

Thus, the correct option should be option D as mutation is a random process that can occur at any time in a lifetime.  

Mutations can be caused by various chemical compounds, radiations, and by errors in DNA replication.

It can occur in both sexually and asexually reproducing organisms.

miss Akunina [59]

Incorrect statement is: Type II membrane proteins have a signal sequence targeting them to the ER as well as a signal anchor sequence.

Signal peptide or signal sequence is a sequence of amino acids that gets recognized by signal recognition particle (SRP). This sequence is involved in cotranslational translocation into ER, where the protein should be folded. A stop-transfer sequence signals that translation of the protein should continue in the cytosol (not in ER). A signal anchor sequence signals the insertion of protein into the ER membrane.

What is it called when molecules move from low to high concentration across plasma membranes?
Semenov [28]

For osmosis to occur, it must be through a selectively permeable membrane. Diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
