Paleontologists observed changes in the sizes of black bears as their environment changed. During warmer periods between ice ages, most black bears were small. During ice ages, most black bears were large. Which type of selection is this, and how would a graph of the distribution curve of black bear size change as Earth moved out of an ice age?(1 point)
