What would happen to humans if you were to start reproducing asexually only?
well, I think that eventually humans would not be able to evolve at all. And that the clones would gain a conscience and memories of their own, therefore would be unwilling to co-operate with their 'masters'.
What would spot lotion do to bacteria?
it keeps the bacteria from it
If bacteria in a colony are unable to perform conjugation how would this hurt the colony's chance for survival?
The colony would have less genetic variation. The Bacteria in the colony would be too genetically similar
How do bacterium and viruses affect the body?
Bacteria and viruses attack the body. Each type of bacteria and virus attack different areas of the body. Also, there are many different ways of gaining access to the body. They attack the body by trying to shut down a certain system, which without your immune system, would kill you. Bacteria and viruses evolve. However, viruses aren't presently categorized as living organisms.
How does the microscope help humans?
Microscopes help humans by magnifying by many times things which would normally not be visible to the human eye, such as bacteria, viruses, protons, atoms etc. How it helps, is by viewing such things, we learn their behaviour and therefore how to control or use them. Developing drugs to combat viruses etc..
What effect would a very short generation time such as bacteria have on speciation?
Well they would evolve faster, so speciation would occur faster too
Why can the effects of evolution be seen faster in bacteria than in humans?
Bacteria reproduce quite rapidly - in many case it takes only a matter of minutes. Changes to the genetic material would therefore be seen much faster than with humans whose life cycle is quite long.
Why don't humans have weebed fingers?
some do :P webbed fingers are an adaptation that some animals (such as ducks) evolve to help them swim faster humans, on the other hand, are primates - known to be climbing animals, which would have needed well-defined fingers and toes the answer, therefore, is basically: why would they?
What problems would bacteria have if humans didn't exist?
None.
What type of bacteria would you find in humans?
large onez
What would Identify one way in which bacteria differ from humans?
Organisation. Bacteria have cellular level of organisation and humans have organ system level of organisation.
What bacteria do humans carry?
its way to much to tell there is countless amouts of bacteria and it would be imposable to tell you.
Which of the types of organisms would a scientist most likely observe to gain an understanding of how populations can evolve?
Bacteria
What types of organisms would a scientist most likely observe to gain an understanding of how populations can evolve?
A scientist studying how populations evolve would most likely observe organisms with short generation times, high reproductive rates, and large population sizes, such as bacteria or fruit flies. These organisms allow researchers to observe multiple generations quickly and see how genetic changes occur over time within a population.
What would happen if there was no oxygen on earth?
Some Bacteria do not need and will even die in the presence of oxygen. They would thrive and probably evolve.
When was running inveneted?
This may never be pinpointed. The reason being humans would not have had a chance to evolve if they did not outrun predators
Why humans are considered to be a very successful species?
They are not, bacteria is the most important species - without them humans would not last more than a few hours.
