Insertions of many new genes into a microbial genome at one time is usually a result of what molecular mechanism? Genetic drift Transposition UV crosslinking of nucleic acids Chemical damage Which characteristic of microorganisms makes experiments like the long-term evolution experiment possible: Microorganisms do not grow Evolution is very uncommon for microorganisms They can regrow after being frozen Mutations in microorganisms only happen during virus infection
