When both participants in a species' interaction develop adaptations in direct response to one another, this could progress into
fomenos

Answer:

coevolution

Explanation:

Coevolution refers to the process where two or more species modify each other's evolution via natural selection. Darwin mentioned how insects and flowering plants could coevolve by reciprocal evolutionary modifications. Coevolution has firstly been associated with mutualism between species including, for example, birds and flowering plants. However, coevolution may also involve host-parasite relationships, such as associations involving parasitic organisms and their sexually reproducing hosts. Finally, there are situations where coevolution involves both parasitism and mutualism (i.e., antagonistic coevolution).

A newborn baby dies soon after birth because her diaphragm and rib cage muscles failed to contract and she was unable to breathe
kozerog [31]

Answer:

Troponin

Explanation:

This is a complex of three proteins  (Trop C, I, T) that are responsible for muscle contraction of  the skeletal and cardiac  muscles . its binds with protein tropomysin  to lie in the grove between the actin filaments.  its prevents contraction by blocking  myosin crossbridge  in a relax muscles.Inorder to aid contractions  calcium ions binds with troponin, which leads to confrontational change.This exposes myosin on actin filaments,  leading to formation of crossbridge and therefore contraction of muscles.

Therefore if there is  a mutation in the gene that encoded Troponin, as explained above, calcium ion  will not be able to bind with tropinin, and there will be no exposure of myosin on actin filaments, no binding of  myosin on actin to cause crossbridge, and consequently no  muscle contraction,

Thus the intercoastal  muscle and diaphragm will not contract leading to death of the baby.
