The goldenrod gall-fly lays its eggs on the terminal buds of goldenrod plants. larvae chew through the buds and into the stems, where their saliva induces the plant to generate a gall, or outgrowth of tissue, that then provides food and shelter for the developing larva. the larvae are prey to both parasitoid wasps and to birds; wasps selectively prey on larvae inside the smallest galls while birds selectively prey on larvae inside the largest galls. goldenrod gall-flies are therefore subject to what selection?

Stabilizing selection

Explanation:

This occurs when selective pressures occur against the two extremes of a trait (wasps prey on larvae inside the smallest galls; birds prey on larvae inside the biggest galls). As a result, this would select for larvae in medium sized galls, while the number of larvae in small and large galls decreases.

the most common energy conversion is from kinetic energy to potential energy, and then from potential energy to kinetic energy.

later on comes the heat energy, mechanical energy, and other energy conversions.

this energy conversion is so common that we can find it in our day to day lives as well.

- one of the most common energy conversions involves the changing of potential energy to kinetic energy or kinetic energy to potential energy
