Answer: Genetically similar

Explanation:

Conjugation can be defined as the process by which bacteria transfers the genetic material through a tube like material between two cells.

This method of gene transfer provides genetic variability to the bacterial cell by giving bacteria antibiotic resistant gene and making it an antibiotic resistant bacterial cell.

So, if the cell is unable to perform conjugation, there will be no genetic variability in the bacterial cell.

The colony would have less genetic variation. The Bacteria in the colony would be too genetically similar

Barnacles and mussels are filter feeders that attach themselves to rocks in the ocean. They eat by filtering small particles of
Pachacha [2.7K]

The barnacles are only able to attach them selfs to surfaces in the water. Since the surface is limited, barnacles are attaching themselves to the other barnacles, crowding the rock. The muscles were not able to grow or attach themselves off the surface of the rock. Same thing with the mussels that are growing on the rock. So not only barnacles are crowding the rock, but Mussels as well are crowding the rock.

How could the notion of maximum parsimony lead to an error in establishing an evolutionary relationship
Grace [21]

Answer:

The notion of maximum parsimony does not consider the entire evolutionary history, being able to suppress important evolutionary points that would cause errors in the evolutionary relationship of a species.

Explanation:

Maximum parsimony is a criterion for optimizing phylogenetic trees. This is because through this criterion an analysis is made of all possible phylogenetic trees of a species, observing which one is smaller and offers simpler and summary information. On the one hand, the study of the smallest phylogenetic tree can be faster and more understandable, since its information is basic and direct. However, maximum parsimony can lead to errors in the establishment of an evolutionary relationship of a species, because it suppresses the entire history of evolution of that species, being able to suppress really important points in one of the clades, which would result in an incorrect evolutionary conclusion.

Invasive species can threaten an ecosystem and the biodiversity of the organism that exist in the present environment when the invasive species increase rapidly in number. 
</span><span>Exotic species are a threat to biodiversity because they alter the ecosystem of that area. They share food and habitat resulting in unbalanced ecosystem. Also, habitat destruction destroys the habitat of all the life forms in that area. </span>
