Two students completed an experiment to determine if pesticide use at local farms was causing fish kills in a local pond. The steps of the experiment are listed below. Select different locations to collect water samples in the pond. Collect a 5-mL water sample at 8 am at a different location each day for 10 days. Measure the amount of pesticide present in each sample using the same measurement tools. After analyzing their data, the students conclude that pesticide runoff from farms is not causing the fish to die in the pond. Which of these statements best describes why their conclusion is not valid?

Aspecies has evolved an asexual mode of reproduction by having offspring develop from unfertilized eggs. which of the following will be true of this species' response to natural selection? there will be more deaths from natural selection because there is no mutation. there will be less genetic variation from recombination and a risk of not adapting quickly to environmental change. the species will increase in numbers because genetic variation is increased. the species will compensate for loss of genetic variation by hybridizing with other species. there will be fewer deaths from natural selection because sexual recombination always leads to extinction.
