It has been observed that certain species of insects which had not previously caused significant harm have become serious pests. the best explanation for this phenomenon is that the pesticide killed off predators which had previously held this species in check. a mutation occurred in the species. the pesticide increased the vigor of the species. ddt was able to be used by the pest as an additional food source. ddt is also a reproductive stimulator for some insect species.

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
