For the answer to the question above,
 <span>DNA is made up of two nucleotide strands. The nucleotides are connected together by covalent bonds within each strand. The sugar of one nucleotide forms a covalent bond with the phosphate group of another. The two strands themselves are connected by hydrogen bonds. The hydrogen bonds are found between the bases of the two strands of nucleotides. Adenine forms hydrogen bonds with thymine whereas guanine forms hydrogen bonds with cytosine. This is called complementary base pairing</span>

A change in a sequence of DNA bases in a bacterial cell has resulted in a mutation. This mutation has increased the ability of t
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

The relative frequency of the mutation will increase as time passes.

Explanation:

This random mutation has, by chance, caused a phenotype that is beneficial to the bacteria. This mutation improves the fitness of the bacteria, as they are able to utilize more food sources. This reduces the chance of starvation and death of the cell. Therefore, cells with this mutation are more likely to survive, and for longer.

In times where nutrients are scarce, bacteria without the population will die off. But the bacteria with this mutation will be more likely to survive and pass on their genetic material. Therefore, over time, the frequency of this mutation will increase.
