DDT is a synthetic compound commonly used as an insecticide. It was used to control mosquito species that commonly spread diseas

es like malaria. The data show the percent resistance for three species of mosquitoes over three decades. What explains the trend seen in the data?A) Genetic drift resulted in the random deaths of non-resistant insects, leaving only resistant mosquitoes to breed.B) Artificial selection favored genotypes that were bred by humans to maintain the desired traits in the mosquito populations.C) Gene flow between the three species increased the genetic diversity of the populations, resulting in more DDT-resistant species over time.D) Natural selection favored resistant members of the species, which survived and reproduced at a greater frequency than non-resistant mosquitoes.

In science, what is artificial selection, and how does it work?
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

Artificial selection, also called "selective breeding”, is where humans select for desirable traits in agricultural products or animals, rather than leaving the species to evolve and change gradually without human interference, like in natural selection.

If E.coli is grown in a medium containing glucose and maltose in equal amounts, the glucose is broken down immediately followed
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

<h2>Catabolite repression </h2>

Explanation:

1. Catabolite repression: it is the positive control of the lac operon.

2. It  results in an increase in the rate of transcription. Here, the CAP protein is activated by cAMP  which then bind to the lac operon and facilitate the binding of RNA polymerase to the promoter to transcribe the genes for lactose utilization.

3. Role of glucose in catabolite repression is that It stimulates transcription from the lac operon, causing an increase in cAMP levels in the cell. Glucose decreases the levels of cAMP in the cell, result in repressing transcription from the lac operon.
