Apopulation of bacteria is not in hardy-weinberg equilibrium. through repeated exposure to an antibiotic, the frequency of the recessive allele is rapidly increasing. what is the most likely explanation for this response?

The recessive allele is responsible for resistance of the bacteria to the antibiotic.

Explanation:

Hardy-Weinberg's law establishes that in a large population, in which mating occurs at random and which is not subject to mutation, selection or migration; gene and genotypic frequencies remain constant from one generation to the next.

In this example, the repeated exposure to an antibiotic, causes the frequency of recessive alleles to increase. This is beacause the recessive alleles are responsible fot the resistance to the antibiotic. Once the antibiotic is used, there is a "selective pressure" on bacteria because it will be the strains that acquire resistance that will be able to survive and reproduce. Before that, the recessive alleles were not needed because there was no antibiotic present

the framers of the constitution insisted that federal judges be nominated instead of elected due to their desire to have judges above the shifting whims of the masses.

the hope, whether achieved or not, was that federal judges would only be beholden to the law and that by not having judges be elected, they would be protected if that law dictated an outcome that ran counter to popular opinion.

the fossil record provides evidence of a common ancestor to many species.
