What is a mode of natural selection that favors a phenotype at one end of a range of variation?   Directional selection   Stabilizing selection   Disruptive selection

What is the source of new alleles within a population? mutation sexual reproduction independent assortment natural selection

In a population that had mice ranging in color from very light to very dark, which type of selection would result in a population of mostly dark mice? Group of answer choices   Directional selection Disruptive selection Stabilizing selection

In a population of frogs, individuals with green coloration are camouflaged on leaves and are less likely to be eaten by predators. However, as the number of green frogs increases, predators learn to search for them more effectively, making it advantageous to be a less common color. What type of selection is occurring in this scenario? Disruptive selection 8888 Positive frequency-dependent selection Stabilizing selection Negative frequency-dependent selection Directional selection

Natural selection is dependent on several factors, including the ability a population to survive and reproduce within a particular environment. How are both of these factors modeled?

Which of the following is the hypothesis that individuals who possess favorable traits are more likely to survive and reproduce than those who possess less favorable traits?     genetic drift     gene flow     mutation     natural selection

Describe how natural selection can create new species through reinforcement.

Which type of selection best describes the shift in peppered moth from the light form to the dark form following the industrial revolution? Directional Stabilizing Disruptive 58

Becca loves German Shepherds and wants to have one as a pet. She locates a breeder and agrees to purchase one of the puppies. Which type of selection occurs from this type of human intervention?         directional selection         stabilizing selection         disruptive selection         artificial selection
