How does a bacteria’s resistance to an antibiotic first arise? a.) vaccines b.) through mutation c.) bacteria learns to be resis
MakcuM [25]

<u>Answer</u>: option B through mutation

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • Antibiotic resistance is the phenomena in which the bacteria becomes reistance to a given antibiotic and is no longer killed or harmed by it.
  • Bacteria unlike humand divide rapidly and increase in large number. However, each time it divides it has to replicate its genetic material. In the process of replication there is always a chance of introducing an error which is called as a <em>mutation</em>.
  • The mutation that occurs in a bacteria can either ber advantageous or disadvantageous. However, amongst the various type of mutations that arise in the bacteria if a particular mutation is conferring resistance to an antibiotic then in such case the bacteris gets selected by natural selection.
  • The bacteria having acquired thr resistance is then able to produce more of its progenies with the same antibiotic resistance and thus, this is how the resistance gets propagated.

So, firstly the <em>mutation</em> is the one which gives rise to the resistance which is then spread among the bacterial population by the process of reproduction as well horizontal gene transfer.

How might the human population's growth rate change in the future?
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

The UN projects that the global population increases from a population of 7.7 billion in 2019 to 10.9 billion by the end of the century. By that time, the UN projects, fast global population growth will come to an end.

Beneath the global level, there are of course, big differences between different world regions and countries. While in some regions the world population will likely grow rapidly for the coming decades other regions will continue to see declining population numbers.

Global population growth is determined by the number of births and deaths. Improving health is increasing the size of the population as it is decreasing mortality. The countervailing trend are falling fertility rates – the trend of couples having fewer children is what brought rapid population growth to an end in many countries already, and what will bring an end to rapid population growth globally.

The global population growth rate has already slowed down considerably: It reached its peak at over 2% in the late 1960s and has been falling since.

The UN projections for the global population growth rates, which have been produced since the 1950s, have a good track record in projecting the size of the global population.

While the UN projections are most widely know there are other very carefully produced projections. The demographers of WC-IIASA model what will happen according to different scenarios and make clear that the population growth rate tomorrow depends on what we do today. Rapid progress in getting children and especially girls into schools will result in a much smaller global population.

The biggest disagreement between different projections is concerning the future of Africa. While the UN projects a 3.5-fold increase of the population of Africa, other researchers find a much smaller increase more likely.
