Stoichiometric equations are used to represent growth of microorganisms provided a ' molecular formula' for the cells is available. The molecular formula for biomass is obtained by measuring the amounts of C, N, H, O and other elements in cells. For a particular bacterial strain, the molecular formula was determined to be C4.4H7.30 1.2N0.86 . These bacteria are grown under aerobic conditions with hexadecane (C16H34) as substrate. The reaction equation describing growth is:

Different type of evolution leads to group of taxon in following three manners

A- group of taxon whose member have descended from common ancestor

B- when two lineages convergently  evolve similar character states form  groups that are recognized by pheneticists

c. taxon that include most recent ancestor but not all of its descendent

A parent population (P) is change into daughter populations (Q) which grow in habitats. After 1000 generations, the equilibrium frequency distribution of of the daughter populations is shown in the figure below. For reference, the vertical line represents the mean of the parent population. Which type of natural selection?
