Stabilizing selection is an type of natural selection. Stabilizing selection is the natural selection whereby the population (population mean) of species are stabilized or maintained by reducing the variation in the DNA sequence of the genomes of a population.

The answer is stabilizing selection. This type of natural selection in which the population mean stabilizes on a particular non-extreme trait value. This type of natural selection is the most widely seen in which there are no drastic changes in traits of the population in long times. Extreme traits of the population are weeded out hence the subsequent generations of the population have less diversity than the initial. The illustration below shows this model in relation to the others.

Answer:

C. NAD⁺  

Step-by-step explanation:

NADH is oxidized to NAD⁺ in Complex I of the Electron Transport Chain.

NADH ⟶ NAD⁺ + H⁺ + 2e⁻

The electrons continue through the Electron Transport Chain, and the NAD⁺ is used in three places during the Krebs Cycle.

(a) Isocitrate to oxalosuccinate

Isocitrate + NAD⁺ ⟶ oxalosuccinate + NADH + H⁺

(b) α-Ketoglutarate to succinyl-CoA

α-ketoglutarate + NAD+ + CoA → succinyl CoA + CO₂ + NADH

(c) Malate to oxaloacetate

Malate + NAD⁺  ⟶ oxaloacetate + NADH + H⁺

The NADH produced by these three reactions can then be used by Complex I in the Electron Transport Chain.

One unit of alcohol contains 8 grams of alcohol. calculate the risk of developing liver cancer for someone who consumes 4 units
Kryger [21]

The risk of developing liver cancer for someone who consumes 4 units of alcohol a day is twice as high as normal (hepatocellular carcinoma and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma).

<h3>What does alcohol do to the liver?</h3>

Alters the production of enzymes, changing the rate of metabolism of the alcohol consumed, causing chronic inflammation, alcoholic hepatitis and cirrhosis.  Irritates the mucous membranes of the stomach and esophagus, causing esophagitis, gastritis and diarrhea.

With this information, we can conclude that The risk of developing liver cancer for someone who consumes 4 units of alcohol a day is twice as high as normal (hepatocellular carcinoma and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma).
