- what are some plausible phenotypic changes that we might see in different vector species as climate change progresses? How might these changes affect interspecific competition?arrow_forwardYou are maintaining a small population of fruit flies in the laboratory by transferring the flies to a new culture bottle after each generation. After several generations, you notice that the viability of the flies has decreased greatly. Recognizing that small population size is likely to be linked to decreased viability, the best way to reverse this trend is to cross your flies with flies from another lab.

This has the potential to convert oak-dominated communities to communities made up of mostly grasses and smaller plants.

- Which of the following best explains the change in the frequency of penicillin resistance in S. aureus from 1940 to 2010? S. aureus that were resistant to penicillin evolved to use penicillin as an energy source that nonresistant strains could not use. S. aureus that were resistant to penicillin developed a mutualistic relationship with humans, while the nonresistant strains did not. S. aureus that were resistant to penicillin evolved to reproduce more quickly than nonresistant strains. S. aureus that were resistant to penicillin survived and reproduced in the presence of the antibiotic, while %24 nonresistant strains did not.arrow_forwardIn a real habitat, new squirrels often come into the habitat (immigrate) and others leave the area (emigrate).
