Explain why the overprescription of antibiotics by doctors, or the overuse of everyday soaps containing antibiotics, can be a health risk.

Since the modern synthesis, the technical definition of evolution is a change in in a over the course of generations.a. traits, species;b, allele frequency, population;c. natural selection, natural environment;d. adaptations, single organism;e. fitness, population

Even though marsupial mammals give birth to live young, an eggshell forms briefly early in their development. This is evidence that a.marsupials share a common ancestor with some egg-laying species;b. marsupials are not really mammals;c. all animals arose from a common ancestor;d. marsupial mammals were separately created by God;e. the fossil record of marsupial mammals is incorrect

Lysozyme, an enzyme found in human saliva, tears, and other secretions, catalyzes the hydrolysis of the ββ-1,4-glycosidic linkages in peptidoglycan. Predict the effect of this enzyme on bacteria and how it may be involved in human health.

Within a few weeks of treatment with the drug 3TC, a patient's HIV population consists entirely of 3TC-resistant viruses. How can this result best be explained?a. HIV can change its surface proteins and resist vaccines.b. The patient must have become reinfected with a resistant virus.c. A few drug-resistant viruses were present at the start of treatment, and natural selection increased their frequency.d. HIV began making drug-resistant versions of its enzymes in response to the drug.

Evaluate this statement: Evolution is said to occur when new traits accumulate over time, increasing complexity.

Galactosemia is a potentially fatal disease that occurs in humans who lack the enzyme that converts galactose to glucose. If you were a physician treating a person with this disease, which of the following would you have them exclude from their diet?a. maltoseb. starchc. mannosed. lactose

A species of crayfish that lives in caves produces eyestalks like its above-ground relatives, but has no eyes. Eyestalks in cave-dwelling crayfish are thus .a. an evolutionary error;b. a dominant mutation;c. biogeographical evidence of evolution;d. a vestigial trait;e. evidence that evolutionary theory may be incorrect
