Question

. The developing model of classification takes into account gene transfer from additional sources than from parent to offspring. What are these sources of gene transfer and what type of phylogenetic tree will taking these gene contributions bring about. 10. Who made the earliest diagrams and descriptions of microbes and how was this accomplished. who took this work to such great levels to become known as the originator of the fields ofbacteriology and protozoology. no lon? unn leeuwen 11. What are the ways in which carbon dioxide (CO2) is cycled through the environment? 12. By what method are vast numbers of microorganisms are being genetically charactized hoer Co 2 without culturing them in the laboratory 13. What are some of the findings from analysis of the small subunit rRNAs showing us? 14. Which kingdom of the five kingdom model does not contain any eukaryotes? 15. Who were the scientists who proposed that organisms be assigned to one of three domains? 16. In what field of endeavor is a scientist who is studying the sequence of nucleotides of SSU rRNA of a bacteria. 17. Which area of biology states that living things undergo gradual structural and functional changes over long periods of time?

Explanation / Answer

Such horizontal flow of genes is could either be sourced to other fellow organisms (in case of most antibiotic resistance which spreads from one bacteria to the other) and from pathogenic organisms (eg. When viruses integrate their genetic material in that of the host)

The phylogenetic tree in such cases would result in drastic variations allowing 2 distantly related organisms would now begin to show high similarity
