The correct answer is B.

On this graph we can observe the workings of the stabilizing selection. Stabilizing selection tends to favor the average phenotype and eliminate the extremes. Essentially, this means that the natural selection is selecting the mean value of a trait as optimal. In our case, the mean weight of newborns is selected as optimal, because newborns born with less weight can be too weak to survive and the ones that have too much weight (are too big) can hurt the mother during birth.

Which of the following describes a cnidarian with a polyp body form?
Triss [41]

Answer:

a tube-like body attached to a firm surface with tentacles on the opposite side of the attachment, surrounding the animal's mouth

Explanation:

A polyp is a type of body structure that a cnidarian can assume. The cnidarians, in turn, are invetebrate animals of aquatic life. This group of animals includes jellyfish, corals and sea anemones.

In polyp form, cnidarians are not actively moving, although some do move when they feel threatened. This is because they appear as a tubular structure, with one end fixed to the sea floor. The other end presents the animal's mouth, which is surrounded by tentacles that are responsible for capturing the prey needed for food.
