12 Suppose a fire burns through the beetles habitat, leaving the trees, soil, and some rocks
charred black for several years. Most of the beetles and their predators survive the fire and
continue to live in the habitat.
a. Identify which beetle phenotype or phenotypes will most likely be favored in the habitat
after the fire. Explain your answer.
b. Identify the type of natural selection (directional, stabilizing, or disruptive) that will most
likely act on the beetle population.
The type of natural selection you identified in part (b) will change the phenotype distribution
in the beetle population.
c. Using your knowledge of natural selection, explain how the change in phenotype
distribution will occur.

One statements is an example of a scientific observation. another statement is an example of a scientific explanation. identify the correct statement for each category to illustrate how scientific explanations are inferred from scientific observations.

Seen in some gram-positive bacilli, occurs when only the inner portion of a cell wall is deposited across the dividing cell. this new cross wall puts tension on the outer layer of the old cell wall. eventually, the outer wall breaks at its weakest point with a snapping movement that tears it most of the way around. the daughter cells can then remain hanging together almost side by side being held by a small remnant of the original outer wall. choose from the following statements the ones that correctly discuss reproduction using binary fission in a bacterial cell. select all that apply. view available hint(s) select all that apply. due to the stretching of the cytoplasmic membrane, both cells will contain a complete genome. each daughter cell will contain an equal number of organelles. the daughter cell will be a permanently smaller copy of the mother cell but will contain a complete genome. each daughter cell is an exact copy of the other, both genetically and morphologically
