A scientist shines low levels of ultraviolet radiation on a dish containing colonies of ruby-red bacteria. He then makes several replicate plates from this dish over many generations. He finds that in addition to the ruby-red color, there are also pink, orange, and yellow bacteria.
Which of the following is the best explanation for these findings?
A.
The scientist selected new types of bacteria by making plates of successive generations over time.
B.
Natural selection produced the changes in the bacterial color.
C.
One bacterial colony changed its color to better blend in to the media.
D.
Mutations occurred in the gene for color and were passed on to successive generations of bacteria.

Predict the reactants of this chemical reaction. that is, fill in the left side of the chemical equation. be sure the equation you submit is balanced. (you can edit both sides of the equation to balance it, if you need to.) note: you are writing the molecular, and not the net ionic equation. > cacl2(aq) + h20(l)
