Answer:

d) descent with modification

Explanation:

According to my research on Darwin's theory of natural selection, I can say that based on the information provided within the question the term being described is called descent with modification. This basically refers to the most dominant traits being passed down from generation to generation, and being modified little by little in each lineage. Which is done through natural selection.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

Answer:

clusters of round shape bacteria

Explanation:

Microscopic examination of the potato salad should reveal <u>clusters of round shape bacterium. </u>

Staphylococcus or Staphylococcal are those that are round in shape (from the word 'coccus') and occur in clusters as opposed to individually or in chains. The word is derived from two Greek words - <em>staphyle</em> which means <em>bunch of grapes</em> and <em>kokkos</em> which means <em>to be round</em>.

Hence, <u>when a magnified image of the Staphylococcus aureus is produced by the microscope, clusters of round shape bacteria would be seen</u>.
