Answer:

A respirometer is a device that is used to measure the consumption rate of oxygen by any living organism.

So as the oxygen uses by the organism, the pressure of oxygen in the respirometer decreases and as the pressure decrease some amount of water enters the respirometer.  

So according to the consumption of oxygen water will move inside the respirometer due to a reduction in pressure in respirometer. So the rate of respiration can be calculated because the amount of water enters is directly proportional to the amount of oxygen consumed by an organism.

Stabilizing selection

Explanation:

Stabilizing selection is the most common form of natural selection that is not easy to notice in a population as the change is less drastic.  It occurs when average or intermediate phenotypes of a trait in a population are favored, while the extreme phenotypes of that trait are not favored by the forces of natural selection. Over time, intermediate or non-extreme traits become more common in the population, while extreme traits become less common.
