Question

select the correct answer from each drop - down menu. a researcher was studying mutations in bacteria. he found that certain bacteria had changes in their dna that allowed them to be resistant to antibiotics. this research is an example of drop - down menu with options: embryology, evolutionary genetics, comparative anatomy. the mutation will lead to another part of the question, partially visible

Explanation:

Evolutionary genetics studies genetic changes (like mutations) in organisms over time. Bacteria's DNA mutations leading to antibiotic resistance involve genetic changes related to evolution. Embryology focuses on embryo development, and comparative anatomy on body - structure comparisons. Since the problem is about mutations (genetic changes) in bacteria leading to a trait (antibiotic resistance) relevant to evolution, evolutionary genetics is the fit.

Answer:

evolutionary genetics
