A. weight which allowed B. weight, which allows C. weight which has allowed D. weight that has been allowing E. weight allowing the meaning of the sentence is not clear. strip the sentence to of any adjectives and adverbs to identify the meaning, and you will see the meaning looks awkward - ..."they expend less energy.... allowing them to survive"

DO THESE SENTENCES CHANGE THE MEANING? I DONT THINK THEY DO
