Wild-type E. coli grow best at 37 but can grow efficiently up to 42 . An E. coli strain has a mutation of the sigma subunit that results in an RNA polymerase holoenzyme that is stable and transcribes at wild-type levels at 37 . The mutant holoenzyme is progressively destabilized as the temperature is raised, and it completely denatures and ceases to carry out transcription at 42 . Relative to wild-type growth, characterize the ability of the mutant strain to carry out transcription at: 37 degrees A. organism does not transcribe gene, B. organism transcribes slowly, C. organism transcribes a wild type, D. organism transcribes faster than a wild type What term best characterizes the type of mutation exhibited by the mutant bacterial strain?

Examine the two squirrel populations in the accompanying figure. the populations are separated by a geographic barrier. if after a long period of time the two species are no longer separated, what evidence is needed to determine if speciation has occurred? the figure shows two populations of squirrels separated by a geographic barrier. examine the two squirrel populations in the accompanying figure. the populations are separated by a geographic barrier. if after a long period of time the two species are no longer separated, what evidence is needed to determine if speciation has occurred? the figure shows two populations of squirrels separated by a geographic barrier. polyploidy is creating new species. the two populations are not interbreeding freely. hybrid offspring of the two populations begin to appear. one species will increase into a population size twice as large as the other species.
