The characteristic of life that relies on the sun is the need for energy. Every living thing needs energy in order to survive, and almost every form of life on Earth depends on the sun for this energy. The sun's energy is captured and harnessed by the process of photosynthesis.

How does the genotype of a bacterium determine its phenotype? Use the terms gene, mRNA, ribosome, and polypeptide in your answer
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
Typically, the genotype is encoded in the DNA by the gene; this gene in the DNA will then undergo the process of transcription and the information in the gene will be transcripted into mRNA. The mRNA will then undergo the process of translation and the information in the mRNA will  be translated into a polypeptide chiefly by the action of ribosome. Thus, bacteria with different genotypes will have different protein which automatically means that they will have different phenotypes.

Human birth weights range very narrowly between 5.5 and 8.5 pounds. Babies much smaller than 5.5 lbs. suffer a higher mortality
Margarita [4]

Answer:

a.  Stabilizing selection

Explanation:

Babies lower than 5.5lbs would suffer from various disorder because of low birth weight as their body would not be able to compete as well they would have weak immune system and malnourishment. Whereas high birth weight carry the equally above risk as their body wont be able to cope up and organs become insensitive to various hormones. for the survival the birth weight should be within a median range so that it would be favorable for themselves and surroundings.

Stabilizing selection occurs when a population stabilizes on a particular trait value and genetic diversity decreases. As in this example, an average baby weight has to favour against extreme variation for it's better survival.

therefore, this is an example of stabilizing selection.
