The physical appearance of the biochemical characteristic of an organism as result of the interaction of phenotype; some mutation has the positive effect on the organism in which they occur.

<u>Explanation:</u>

They are called beneficial mutation. Phenotype of the organism lead to new development of proteins which help the organisms to adopt their own environment. Beneficial mutation are essential for evaluation to occur.

Phenotype stretch the DNA without any function; the mutations occur in a protein coating region, but it end up the process by not affecting sequence of the protein.

Example of phenotype are:

Observable characteristics including behaviour, biochemical properties; the phenotype benefits such as HIV resistance, lactose resistance.

Lina20 [59]

Overfishing would result in an bottleneck effect as large number of fish is removed from a population of fishes. The size of the population has an larger effect on the amount of genetic diversity. Larger the population greater the genetic diversity.Due to overfishing, population would become smaller resulting in reducing genetic diversity. So the answer is B.

OverLord2011 [107]

The statement is true. There are two main anabolic stimuli for muscle that is exercise and protein ingestion. Protein not only provides the building blocks for the muscle, but also provides the trigger to stimulate muscle protein synthesis. Muscle protein synthesis is the physiological process of adding new amino acids to muscle proteins and is the primary mechanism of muscle growth.
