Question
Bacteria populations display genetic variation such as antibiotic resistance due to mutation . Which is the likely source of mutation? *
d. Organisms that live in rural areas outside of the city are more likely to be exposed
to mutagens than mice that live in the city.
Bacteria populations display genetic variation such as antibiotic resistance 5 points
due to mutation. Which is the likely source of mutation? *
Because bacteria reproduce sexually, their mutations would most likely arise from
errors in crossing over during meiosis.
Because bacteria reproduce asexually, their mutations would most likely be a
replication error and improper proofreading.
Because bacteria reproduce sexually, their mutations would most likely arise from an
environmental factor such as prolonged exposure to UV radiation.
Because bacteria reproduce asexually, their mutations would most likely arise from an
environmental factor such as prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
