Answer:
a. Stabilizing selection
Explanation:
Babies lower than 5.5lbs would suffer from various disorder because of low birth weight as their body would not be able to compete as well they would have weak immune system and malnourishment. Whereas high birth weight carry the equally above risk as their body wont be able to cope up and organs become insensitive to various hormones. for the survival the birth weight should be within a median range so that it would be favorable for themselves and surroundings.
Stabilizing selection occurs when a population stabilizes on a particular trait value and genetic diversity decreases. As in this example, an average baby weight has to favour against extreme variation for it's better survival.
therefore, this is an example of stabilizing selection.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Due to technology being ubiquitous, more and more gadgets that are produced are consuming more and more energy. This means that there is a need for cheap energy. Currently, cheaper sources of energy are non-renewable such as coal and crude oil. These pollute the environment causing climate change.
Explanation:
Central dogma represents the pathway in which the information encoded in the DNA flows into proteins.
The DNA is made up of the nucleotide monomers in which the nitrogenous bases are present as one of the constituents. These bases are present in the sequence are transcribed into the RNA molecule through the process of transcription.
The nitrogenous sequences in this RNA molecule are then translated into the proteins through the process of translation during which the sequence is read in pairs of three called "codons". A specific amino acid is attached to the peptide when the codons are read by the translation machinery and a protein is formed.
These proteins could perform various roles in organisms from physical to biochemical and thus the physical traits are controlled by the DNA.
The answer would be c. plant trees around farmland. This is because the trees will protect the soil from being affected by the wind.
