Directional selection is a type of natural selection that favors one extreme phenotype over the mean or another extreme. Examples of directional selection include giraffes that have long necks and the darkening of London's peppered moths after the Industrial Revolution.
Stabilizing selection, also known as purifying selection, is a type of natural selection in which genetic diversity decreases as the population stabilizes on a particular trait value. An example of stabilizing selection is birth weigh in humans.
Disruptive selection is a type of natural selection that shows a preference toward the reproduction of genetic material at the extremes within a population.One of the most studied examples of disruptive selection is the case of London's peppered moths.

Sponges are organisms that are members of phylum prolifera, they are simple multicellular animals without a mouth, muscles, heart or brain.Sponges's tissues contains collar cells and amoebaocytes in its tissues. They feed by drawing water in through their pores and filter out food particles. Sponge larvae are more animal-like than adult sponges because they are free-swimming organisms.
Out of the choices given, active and passive transport of solutes across a membrane typically differ because active transport always involves the utilization of cellular energy, whereas passive transport does not require cellular energy. The correct answer is B.
Dissociate in water because water is a polar molecule
