The RDA for protein increases by an additional 25 grams per day during pregnancy. Protein RDAs are calculated using 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight, which means an adult weighing 68 kilograms needs at least 54 grams of proteins each day . The RDA for pregnant and nursing women is a bit higher because of the protein needed for the growth of fetus, it is about 71 grams of protein per day.
Artificial selection is the type of selective breeding.
Selective breeding is process of breeding parents with distinct characteristics to produce offspring with more desirable characteristics.
Most of the time the breed of dogs were formerly selected for particular purposes, such as hunting or guarding which needs strong physical endurance. Hence, Selective breeding is evolved by human selection. For example racehorses, having particular traits are desirable in different breeds of dogs that compete in dog shows. Artificial selection, is selective breeding that is imposed by an selective process, in order to get the phenotype of desirable features.

Answer: the rate of pollination of flower, in a field next to a pond with no fish, will DECREASE.
Explanation:
POLLINATION is defined as the process by which flowering plants, through the aid of external agents such as insects,wind, water and other animals, are able to transfer pollen grains from an anther to a receptive stigma. Insects are the most common pollinators. They visit flowers to obtain nectar and pollen as source of food. Flowers use various features, such as colour and scent, to attract and guide insects to the food source within them. In the process of reaching their source of food, insects bring about pollination.
From the study conducted by scientist in Florida, eight(8) ponds where subjected to the the study. The first four (4) ponds had species of fishes that fed on dragonflies and dragonfly larvae, hence the reason for a decrease in the population of the dragon flies in the area around it. While the remaining four (4) ponds had NO fish and the area around it is populated with dragonflies and dragonfly larvae. This is so because of the absence of fish.
It was then noted that the dragon lies fed of the insect pollinators such as the bees and butterflies. Since these dragonflies and its larvae are abundant in the field which is close to the pond with no fish, they will grossly depend on the insect pollinators as their source of food thereby decreasing the rate of pollination in the field next to the pond with no fish.
