Which population would most likely be evolving? a population of deer that has little or no migration a population of grasses that lives in a stable climate a population of bacteria that has a high mutation rate a population of flowers that are self-pollinated

Respuesta :

the population that would most likely be evolving would be the bacteria with a high mutation rate

Answer: The correct answer is -

population of bacteria that has a high mutation rate.

Mutation can be described as permanent change in the genetic material of a living organism.

A population is said to be evolving if it changes over time due to change in the inheritable traits of the population.

With high mutation rate, there will be change in the frequency of gene variant (allele) and natural selection will act on the beneficial genes.

Due to this, over generations, bacterial population with high mutation rate will most likely to be evolving (that is change in the bacterial population will occur due to changes in the inheritable traits).
