This is a typical example of R selection life strategy. These species, including the Atlantic cod, produce a large number of offspring with a low chance of surviving to adulthood. This strategy is particularly successful in environments that are unstable. The main advantage of this strategy in changing environments is that the ''cost'' of making offspring is very low, so you the species can produce large numbers offspring, ensuring that at least some of them will survive into adulthood and continue the species.
Natural selection, in this case, favors the individuals that are able to adapt the fastest to the changing conditions.
Answer:
C.The added epitope disrupts the function of the tagged protein
Explanation:
When an additional sequence is tagged to a protein to use comercial antibodies, there are several reasons why this procedure wouldn't work as expected (note that we're assuming the protein is being expressed but it's not possible to detect it).
For example, the sequence of nucleotide added to codify for the tagged epitope are removed during the RNA processing. In that case, the protein would be expressed without the epitope, so it would be impossible to localize it with the antibodies.
Also, it could be that the new epitope is affecting some way the protein folding, making it not functional. This way, it would be degraded by the cell so it wouldn't be detected.
Another possibility is that the epitope doesn't affects the protein folding nor its function, but during the folding ends up in a conformation that makes it inaccesible for the antibody.
In summary, the way as the possible answers to this question are shown, the correct option seems to be C:<em> The added epitope disrupts the function of the target protein.</em>
