Answer:

The four limbs

Explanation:

A shared derived trait involves shared characters that lineages have in common, which have evolved in the lineages leading up to a clade and that sets members of that clade apart from other individuals.

The four limbs is found in virtually all amphibians, turtles, lizards, snakes, crocodiles, birds, and mammals. It might not be seen in snakes now, but historically it is believed that ancient snakes once possessed limbs. This feature is a shared derived trait that exist among the selected clade.

The diagram represents a model of how bacteria become resistant to an antibiotic, allowing bacteria to survive treatment. Which
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Genetic mutations randomly occur in the population of cells. If, by chance, there is a mutation that gives the bacterial cell resistance to an antibiotic, then that mutation will remain in the population.

This is because it gives the cell a competitive advantage (because it is more likely to survive than its non-resistant counterparts). If it survives, it will divide and pass the mutation on to its daughter cells, which will survive. This keeps happening until an entire population will carry the mutation.
