Answer is B) One swims freely and the other often lives attached to a hard surface.

Nektons are marine aquatic actively-swimming organisms. Nektons propel in the water column freely either by swimming or other by means. Examples include vertebrates such as fish, whales, turtles, sharks and invertebrates include squads.

Benthos are the animals which are found at the bottom of the seafloor. These animals can be free moving forms near the ocean bed or attached to the seafloor. Unlike the nektons, benthos cannot swim in water. Benthos mainly includes echinoderms, crustaceans, molluscs, poriferans and annelids.

What do stabilizing selection and directional selection have in common
pogonyaev

Answer:

Both are  type of natural selection and ultimately lead to selection of a set of phenotype over the entire available genotype spectrum.

Explanation:

Both the stabilizing selection and directional selection are two forms of natural selection

Also in both the selection process, a new population with a better fitment to the prevailing environmental and physical conditions evolves.

In stabilizing selection, an average phenotype is selected over extreme variation. However, by this process of selection the genetic variance of the population will decrease.

However in directional selection,  phenotypes at one end of the existing variation are selected over the entire spectrum
