Question

in a population of mice individuals with medium brown fur are less likely to be seen by predators than light brown and dark brown mice what type of selection is this and what would the distribution curve for the mass population look like

A. distributive two peaks at either end of the graph with a dip in the middle.
B. stabilizing two peaks at either end of the graph with a dip in the middle.
C. Stabilizing, a tall, narrow peek in the center of the graph.
D. Distribute is a tall, narrow peak in the center of the graph.

Answer 1

B. stabilizing two peaks at either end of the graph with a dip in the middle. This is because individuals with medium brown fur have a higher fitness and survive to reproduce more than the lighter and darker individuals, leading to a narrowing of the distribution curve around the medium brown fur color.
