Which phenotypes have higher fitness?
The ones one each end. :)
Which kind of selection eliminates extreme phenotypes?
disruptive selection
Selection occurs when the environment continually eliminates extremes at both ends of a range of phenotypes?
Stabilizing selection.
Describe three patterns of natural selection on polygenic traits Which one leads to two distinct phenotypes?
One pattern of natural selection polygenic traits is directional selection, in which one end of the spectrum leads to increased fitness and the other end decreased fitness. Disruptive selection is when both ends of the spectrum lead to increased fitness and the middle leads to decreased fitness and it leads to two distinct phenotypes being selected for. It's opposite is stabilizing selection, in which the middle has the best fitness and the two extremes have decreased fitness.
What type of selection may eliminate intermediate phenotypes?
b) disruptive selection. It
What is a type of selection in which individuals at both ends of the distribution curve have higher fitness than those near the middle?
disruptive selection
What type of natural selection takes place when individuals at the upper and lower ends of the curve have higher fitness than individuals near the middle?
Disruptive selection.
Why some phenotypes are more common in a population than others?
Fitness.
What is the type of selection in which individuals at one end of the distribution curve higher fitness than individuals in the middle of at the other end?
stabilizing selection
When the phenotypes of polygenic traits are represented by a bell shaped curve the?
Many polygenic traits are represented by a bell cure because they are controlled by many genes and result in gradations where each gene has an effect.
Can disruptive innovation earn companies higher profits?
It can indeed. Disruptive innovation may not always be a good thing, but in rare cases it is.
What is the type of natural selection that favors intermediate phenotypes?
When natural selection favors the intermediate version of a characteristic, it is referred to as stabilizing selection. It is the opposite of disruptive selection.
