In a field of flowering plants known as evening primrose, a genetic doubling event produces a few individuals that are still in

physical contact with each other, but they're reproductively isolated from the rest of the population. Thus, the exceptional plants are considered a new species. This type of speciation would be described as___________________________

Answer:

sympatric

Explanation:

Speciation is the process by which new species originate and there are several mechanisms and processes by which speciation can take place.

When speciation occurs in a common geographical area where there are no barriers preventing the mating of species and the members of the species lie in close proximity to one another however, even in such conditions new species arise because of some differential characteristics. Such a speciation is termed as sympatric speciation.

In the given situation, the individuals that undergo genetic doubling get reproductively isolated from the original population because of incompatibility to mate even though they have close proximity with each other.

Therefore, the new species of evening primrose have arisen due to sympatric speciation.

Explain how the adaptation to reproduce quickly is beneficial in bacteria's ability to develop resistance to antibiotics.
azamat
<h2>Resistance to antibiotics </h2>

Explanation:

Bacteria are single-celled organisms usually found all over the inside and outside of our bodies

  • Antibiotic resistance is the ability of bacteria or other microbes to resist the effects of an antibiotic
  • Antibiotic resistance occurs when bacteria change in some way that reduces or eliminates the effectiveness of drugs, chemicals, or other agents designed to cure or prevent infections,the bacteria survive and continue to multiply causing more harm
  • There are two main ways that bacterial cells can acquire antibiotic resistance,one is through mutations that occur in the DNA of the cell during replication and the other way that bacteria acquire resistance is through horizontal gene transfer
  • Through the process of replication bacteria develop mutations that make them resistant to antibiotics
  • Bacteria with the resistant mutation have a better chance of survival against antibiotics
  • Resistant bacteria continue to multiply even when exposed to antibiotics
  • In horizontal gene transfer,antibiotic resistant genetic material is transferred between different bacterial cells which can happen in three different ways: transformation,transduction or conjugation

The exodus of medical professionals from africa to europe is an example of brain drain as it has the potential to __________.
Marat540 [252]

<span>Out of the following given choices;</span>

<span>A)   </span>spur economic development in Africa

B) impede economic development in Africa

C) impede economic development in Europe

D) spur economic growth for those medical professionals

<span>The answer is B. Brain drain means a country is losing its professionals to the external market rather than working in the local market due to unfavorable local conditions. The country loses because it has few medical professionals to treat its people hence it carries a higher burden of diseased people.  Additionally, to cater to this gap, it has to import these medical services which is more expensive than keeping local talent. </span>

Can the environment and the heritage be used to describe evolution?
guapka [62]
Evolution is caused by genetic mutations that become favorable for survival.

For example if a bird has a mutation that gives it a longer beak and it lives in an environment in which a longer beak lets the bird catch more food- the longer beak becomes a favorable trait.

Now the bird is able to survive “better” thus it lives longer(due to its ability to catch more food). Because of this it reproduces more and passes the trait on to its offspring.
Overtime this mutation takes over the population of birds in the area.
