Q4.12. Compared to Bt-susceptible bollworms, Bt-resistant individuals have longer development times on normal cotton, but higher survival on Bt cotton. This means there's a trade-off between development time and survival. What would be the most likely consequence for the evolution of Bt-resistance without the longer development time

The answer is: resistance would evolve more quickly because it would not have an associated fitness cost.

Explanation:

This could be stated as follows: If the time to develop a drug that fights a certain infection is increased, this will lead to bacterial resistance evolving more slowly, however, if the development of technologies and drugs is very short , the probability that Bt resistance evolves rapidly, this having more serious consequences to combat it.

explanation:

plz give me the characteristics.
