A mutation that confers drug resistance is present in a bacterial population that
has never been treated with antibiotics. The mutation is present in this
population because:
mutations arise randomly
bacteria reproduce asexually
it is an advantageous phenotype
all mutations that ever arise are retained within populations

Expert Solution

Introduction

Since you have asked multiple questions, we will solve the first question for you. If you want any specific question to be solved then please specify the question number or post only that question.

Evolution is a process of gradual changes in the genetic composition of an organism based on the biotic as well as abiotic factors that helps the survival of the species. These gradual changes take place due to slow mutations that cause the development of new characteristics in the species. The natural selection helps in the retention of the beneficial mutations during the course of evolution.
