Answer: 8.64 grams  

Explanation:

The average intake of protein in the body is dependent on the weight of the body. The RDT of protein is that 0.8 grams per kilogram or in terms of pounds it is 0.36 grams per pound.

The child weighs 11.0 kg which is equivalent to 24 pounds. Then the average intake of proteins will be 24*0.8 which is 8.64 grams of protein.

This amount of protein will be enough for the child to carry out daily routine functions.

Did any alleles disappear from your population? if so, why? if not, why not? how does this relate to the most fit phenotype
dmitriy555 [2]
Alleles can disappear from a population through natural selection. This relates to the most fit phenotype because the breed with the desirable trait, or the most fit, will live and produce off spring. Eventually the less desirable trait and its corresponding allele will disappear after multiple generations pass. If the environment does not change alleles of non desirable traits will disappear. <span />
