Answer: The colonies would have less genetic variation.

Explanation:

Bacterial Conjugation is the transfer of genetic material between the bacterial cell when they come in direct contact to each other.

Thy build a bridge like connection in between two cell from where the genetic material is exchanged between them.

If there will be no exchange of genetic material then there are very less chances of genetic variation.

Discuss the social implications of diseases
lana66690 [7]
The economic implications have to do with agriculture. Look what happens when there is an outbreak of mad cow or hoof and mouth disease. Thousands of farmers lose their herds and are financially devastated. This also affects the consumer because the decrease in supply will drive up the costs. But, it could also have the opposite effect. If consumers no longer feel safe, then they will stop eating the particular food and the farmers will lose money. The same is true with disease in plants. Tobacco mosaic virus can devastate crops, resulting in huge economic losses. On a grand scale, crop diseases can affect human history. Potato blight caused suffering and death in Ireland and resulted in massive migration. Many descendents from Irish folks in the U.S. wouldn't be here if it weren't for a crop disease.

Pepsi [2]
C. Shield Volcano.. think of Hawaiian volcanoes,they are basaltic eruptions, very effusive and unexplosive and are characterised by slow lava movement and very little tephra from the eruption. The basalt erupted is very hard, dense rock and so can be built up easily.
