Suppose you are studying a population of bacteria in a lab some of the bacteria are born with a mutation that provides them resistance to antibiotics. explain how competition in this population can lead to evolution and make a prediction of how this evolution will occur.

The bacteria with the mutation will survive.

Explanation:

In this population, if there is a group of bacteria of the same specie that mutate and this mutation is the expression of antibiotic resistance, this mean that the "mutant bacteria" are going to live spite the action of the drug.

Meanwhile the rest of the population is going to die because these group of living things are susceptible to the antibiotic, that means, they are going to die.

In the other hand, the "mutant" living things, by passing the time are going to reproduce and lead a new generation of bacteria resistant to the antibiotic.

hey, i believe your answer would be d. sugar ribose and the base uracil. i believe this is the answer, because rna consists of sugar ribose, adenine, guanine, cytosine, and uracil.

your first option is incorrect, because that's dna. where it consists of sugar deoxyribose, adenine, guanine, cytosine and thymine.

your second option is also incorrect, this is because sugar deoxyribose is in dna, and uracil is in rna. these two do not make sense together.

your third option being incorrect, because sugar ribose is in rna, but not the base of thymine. rna consists of uracil, not thymine.

lastly your fourth option being correct! this answer is correct, because both sugar ribose, and the base uracil are in rna! ~

answer is d. sugar ribose and the base uracil.
