1. Genetic variation is different combinations of genes/traits/characteristics within a pollination of organisms.
2. Two sources of genetic variation are mutations and sexual reproduction.
3. Sexual reproduction can cause genetic diversity because the offspring inherits combinations of traits from both parents. This means the offspring will inherit and show a variety of traits which increases genetic variations within the individual.
4. Genetic variation is important because it helps the population of a species survive and thrive in their environment. Because there are multiple variations within the species, if there ever is a change in the environment of that species, there is a higher chance that that species will be able to adapt to its new environment because of the variety of variations within the species.
5. Bacterial resistance is when a species of bacteria are not affected by the effects of medications. Thus, they will not die from medications. This happens when a species of bacteria is exposed to the same medication long enough to which there are variations within that species. As the amount of variations grow, there is a higher chance that there will be one variation of bacteria that will not be affected by medicine. That bacteria will survive and pass on its protective traits which creates bacterial resistance.
B) The mutation is beneficial and allows those who have it to reproduce more than average.
If the mutation is beneficial, it will become common in a population since the individual(s) that have this beneficial mutation will survive longer to produce more offspring that have this mutation. These offspring will also live longer and spread this mutation through the gene pool through reproduction.
Hope this helps :)
<span>Its just what their diet is made of, meat, mainly other fish. So if there is blood around, there is probably food around.
Same thing with your favorite food.

Correct me if i'm wrong i think the best answer would be d. the cow uses all of the corn's energy for life processes.
The Roman aqueducts were an important advance in public: A) hygiene
