Answer:

The correct answer is Haemophilus influenza.

Explanation:

Sequencing the genomes of simple and small organisms started the revolution of DNA sequencing. With the betterment in techniques, scientists were able to sequence the genomes of more composite species like humans.  

Haemophilus influenza was the first microbial genome, which was sequenced completely in 1995. It refers to a non-locomotive rod-shaped bacterium, which results in the condition known as meningitis. The sequencing of the microbe was led by the scientist Craig Ventor with his colleagues at the Institute for Genomic Research, USA. Haemophilus influenza comprises one chromosome and approximately 1.8 million bases.

The correct response that would illustrate the concept of how influenza is impacted by natural selection, requiring multiple influenza vaccines would be option B. That is, influenza viruses that are not eradicated by a flu shot can pass on their genome to future replicated viral particles.

According to natural selection theory by Darwin, members of a population that are poorly adapted to an environment gradually die off the population, while those that are strong enough produce equally strong offspring that gradually take over the future population.

In other words, influenza viruses that have no inherent attribute to resist the effects of the flu shot will get eradicated while the ones that are able to resist the effects will reproduce and pass on the resistance gene to their offspring. Thus, a new population that is resistant to the flu shot would be formed.

Options A, C, and D have nothing to do with natural selection. Hence, the only correct option is B.

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Answer 1: C

In an electrical synapse, the action potential traverses the synaptic cleft directly without involving any neurotransmitters. The adjacent neurons are connected to each other by gap junctions. These gap junctions allow movement of other molecules between the two cells including secondary messengers.
