Explanation:
Common to genetic drift, the founder principle, and the bottleneck effect:
b. in small populations and result in a decrease in genetic diversity and/or an increase in the occurrence of specific genetic traits
c. when a small group of organisms only reproduce with each other to create a larger population of organisms
d. when the majority of a population is killed off and there are only a few remaining organisms left to rebuild the population
Further Explanation:
During the process of cell division, spontaneous changes within the genome can arise, called mutations. These are errors occur when copies of the DNA within the cell are made; mutations may range from small changes called single nucleotide polymorphisms, to large scale deletions, and additions which span multiple genes.
These mutations form variants which become stable within a population, leading to the formation of separate, genetically distinct populations called species.
- mutations accumulate in a population over time, altering the frequency of alleles or different forms of a gene- this is called genetic drift.
- In the founder effect, the separation of a group from a larger group can decrease genetic diversity, this can create a genetically distinct population
- In the bottleneck effect, a population die off or barrier to reproduction increases the genetic drift in the population

Answer:
All of the options are true for a MRSA infection.
Explanation:
<em>Staphylococcus aureus</em> is one of the most frequent pathogens causing hospital and community infections. <em>S. aureus</em> can become very easy methicillin resistant (called MRSA isolates) and others beta-lactam antibiotics (are the ones widely used to treat infections) and usually can be resistant to other class of antibiotics, become a very strong bacteria making treatment options very limited. MRSA isolates can rapidly transfer the methicillin resistance to other species of S<em>taphylococcus</em> and some other bacteria. Also <em>S. aureus</em> can acquire other antibiotic resistant genes making a deadly bacterium for its strong resistance. It is in search how the bacterium acquire this antibiotics resistance ( and other virulence factors genes) and the mechanism involve to develop new drugs to treat MRSA infections with the hope that can´t develop resistance to this new drugs.
