When a bacterial infection is treated with an antibiotic, the hope is that the antibiotic will kill all of the bacteria and prev

ent them from reproducing. However, if the full prescription of antibiotics is not taken by the sick person, some of the more resistant bacteria can survive. When they reproduce, these bacteria can pass the genes responsible for their resistance on to their offspring. As a result, subsequent administration of the same antibiotic will be less and less effective over time.

This is natural selection. If a random mutation/variation occurs and a bacteria is now resistant to antibiotics, then this is a favorable gene that promotes survival in its environment. This gene will be passed on to offspring through mitosis/binary fission or even conjugation and those bacteria will also be resistant. Eventually all non resistant bacteria will be gone or their numbers will be greatly reduced and only resistant bacteria will survive to reproduce.

Decreasing the rate of gene flow between two populations is likely to make the populations more different from one another. true
devlian [24]

The given statement "Decreasing the rate of gene flow between two populations is likely to make the populations more different from one another." is False.

<h3>What is gene flow?</h3>
  • Gene flow refers to the processes by which genes are transferred from one group to another.
  • Gene flow, which is a term used more frequently in anthropology, refers to the allelic change brought on by human movement.
  • Gene flow would reduce the isolation that could lead to speciation by increasing population similarity and reproductive kinship.
  • Gene flow significantly slows down speciation by recombining the gene pools of the groups and therefore repairing the growing variations in genetic variation that would have otherwise resulted in full speciation and the creation of daughter species.

Hey!

Back when I was finding a school I had the same problem! That reminds me of K12!

So what you do is label the areas L that have low pressure which is areas that are near sea level, kind of cold areas.

For H you label those near the center of the map. Which is more of the HOT areas.

It’s currently cold here, burrrr!!

I’ll provide a picture below.

Awesome seeing someone that went to the same online school!

Have a great day,
Eric

Note: you don’t need to label everywhere. If recommend using the map to guide you!

Reply if you have any further questions!!!!
