Answer:

<em>A mutation in his offspring</em>

Explanation:

A mutation can be described as any change which occurs in the DNA of an organism. Mutations can be either heritable or non-heritable

If a mutation occurs in the gamete cells of a male, the mutation will be heritable and will occur in his offsprings.

Other options, like option D, is not correct because a mutation in the gamete cells will not cause a mutation in the somatic cells. Gamete cells are the sex cells and hence mutation will arise in the sex cells.

Answer:

lost-update program

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that this is an example of the database problem known as lost-update program. This term refers to when more than one individual is attempting to update a database entry within the same column and same row, at the same time. This causes the first entry that was saved by the system to be completely overwritten and lost. Such as what happened to Irene's report since it was saved first and then overwritten by Charle's report.

Cultures of a bacterial species were incubated on the shelf of a refrigerator (5 C), out on a lab bench top (22 C), on the shelf

Setler79 [48]

D) Psychrotrophs.

Explanation:

Psychrotrophs are those bacteria which can tolerate cold temperature and have optimum growth above 15 degree Celsius.
Halophiles prefer high salt concentration.
Mesophiles prefer temperatures with a average of 37 degree Celsius.
Anaerobes grow in absence of oxygen.
In the given experiment, none of the bacterial cultures were placed in saline or anaerobic conditions. So, the bacterial species is not an anaerobe or halophile.
Again the cultures did not show growth at 37 degree celsius so they are not mesophiles.
Maximum growth at 22 degree celsius and a little growth in refrigerator make it obvious that the species is a Psychrotroph.
