which of the following are true regarding the role of horizontal gene transfer in the evolution of life?
hjlf

Horizontal gene transfer has been implicated in the evolution of antibiotic resistance in bacteria.

What is evolution?
Evolution is the gradual change in the inherited traits of biological populations over several generations. These traits are the expressions of DNA is passed down through reproduction from parent to offspring. Because of mutation, genetic recombination, as well as other sources of genetic variation, different traits frequently exist within a population. This variation is subjected to evolutionary processes like natural selection (including mate choice) as well as genetic drift, which cause some traits to become more or less prevalent within a population. This is when evolution occurs. Heritable traits evolve over successive generations as a result of shifting evolutionary pressures which determine whether a trait would be common as well as rare within a population.

How can the environment affect your levels of fitness
Paul [167]
Your environment can affect your fitness on many levels. Such as transportation. The more auto transportation opportunities you have, the less likely you are to either walk, bike, run, and so on. The atmosphere of your environment plays a huge role too. Is your city/town busy or slow going? The temperature. If it is sunny out, people can tend to want to be outdoors more than if it were raining or cold. There are plenty of factors, but sometimes it just varies on the people and their motivations.
