A team of scientists splices a human gene into bacterial plasmids. The human gene codes for insulin. Then the scientists use the plasmids to transform bacteria. Their goal is to develop bacteria that will synthesize insulin. How is it useful for the plasmids to also contain genes for antibiotic resistance?

explanation:

i believe it would cause an increase of percipitation, though i could be wrong. so i would say b is the answer.

genetic variation can be caused by mutation (which can create entirely new alleles in a population), random mating, random fertilization, and recombination between homologous chromosomes during meiosis (which reshuffles alleles within an organism's offspring).

the correct answer is 4) heat and pressure

metamorphic rocks arise from transformation of existing rocks types, in a process called metamorphism. during metamorphism the original rock(prolith) change into metamorphic rock by heating (150-200c) and pressure of more than 1000 bar. the original rock can be sedimentary, igneous, or existing metamorphic rock.
